here they are.

Some of John's Bloodliners have worked out chords and tab for 4 to 500 of John's songs [see link].
For the earlier poster - Kanan is a road or valley in California [LA I think].

(Am) (F) (Am) (F)
When the (Am)lights go down in the California town
(F)People are in for the (Am)evening.
I jump into my car and I throw in my guitar,
My (F)heart beating time with my (Am)breathing.
(F)Driving over Kanan, (Em)singing to my soul,
There's (F)people out there turning music into (Am)gold. (F)
Now, my (Am)buddy Jim Bass, he's a-working, pumping gas,
And he (F)makes two fifty for an (Am)hour.
He's got rhythm in his hands as he's tapping on the cans,
(F)Sings rock and roll in the (Am)shower.
(F)Driving over Kanan, (Em)singing to my soul,
There's (F)people out there turning music into (Am)gold.
(F) (Am) (F)
Oh, (Am)California girls are the greatest in the world,
(F)Each one a song in the (Am)making,
Singing right to me, I can hear the melody,
The (F)story is there for the (Am)taking.
