[Verse 1]
G E C Bm7
Travelling down this highway, Highway 101
G F C
Wishing that my lonesome trip was over and done
G E C Bm7
Counting off those miles, listening to that whine
G C G C G
I Got a California woman on my mind
[Chorus 1]
N.C. C G E C
El Camino Real take me home, back to Monterey
F C G C G
'Cause I didn't have much luck down in L.A.
[Verse 2]
G E
Well, I sang my songs in Montery
C Bm7
And build up quite a name
G
Then I went down to L.A.
F C
For fortune and fame
G E
But no one cared about me there
C Bm7
So, now I'm coming home
G C G C G
Travelling north on Highway 101
[Chorus 2]
N.C. C G E C
El Camino Real take me home, back to Monterey
F C G C G
'Cause I didn't have much luck down in L.A.
[Verse 3]
G E
Well, soon I'll be in Monterey
C Bm7
And then I'll feel so fine
G
'Cause I'll be back with the girl
F C
That I left so far behind
G E
I'll stay right there and sing my songs
C Bm7
Happy as can be
G C G C G
And if L.A. wants, they can come to me
[Chorus 3]
N.C. C G E C
El Camino Real take me home, back to Monterey
