Biography:
John Hiatt (born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.) is an American blues and rock guitarist, pianist, and singer-songwriter. He has been nominated for eleven Grammy Awards. Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation. His songs have been covered by a wide variety of artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, Willie Nelson, Iggy Pop, Three Dog Night, and The Neville Brothers, yet it took him thirteen years to reach the charts himself.

Am C
Smokey room and a thin blue light
Fmaj7 Dm
Her arms were pale as white
Dm Fmaj7
Tryin' to out-last the night
G Am
Howlin' at the moon
Am C
Living in the Canyon Inn
Fmaj7 Dm
Hangdown Hanna and Whis-key Jim
Dm Fmaj7
Dirty jeans and mud-slide hymns
G Am
That all began with "Soon"
[Chorus:]
F G C
So Adios to Cali-forn-ia
G Am
Nothing to do but turn a-round
F G C
I always thought there's someone comin' for ya
Am G Fmaj7
Only way you'd leave this town
(repeat intro riff)
Am C
Pasadena in the rain
Fmaj7 Dm
Eatin' donuts and readin' Twain
Dm Fmaj7
How much longer can my brain
G Am
Set itself on fire?
Am C
You said "That's it for me"
Fmaj7 Dm
Have a little faith, it might set you free
Dm Fmaj7
But your faith's no good, you see
G Am
For me and my des-ire
[Chorus:]
F G C
So Adios to Cali-forn-ia
G Am
Nothing to do but turn a-round
F G C
I always thought there's someone comin' for ya
Am G Fmaj7
Only way you'd leave this town
(solo)
Am C
Two cigarettes from the package gone
Fmaj7 Dm
You must have thought about it just that long
Dm Fmaj7
I never knew you were so strong
G Am
I guess I never will
[Chorus:]
F G C
So Adios to Cali-forn-ia
G Am
Nothing to do but turn a-round
F G C
I always knew there's someone comin' for ya
Am G Fmaj7
Only way you'd leave this town
Am G Fmaj7
Only way you'd leave this town
(repeat intro riff, end on Am)
