Verse 1:
              G                                  F 
        Well, East Coast girls are hip, I really dig those styles they wear
                 C
        And the Southern girls with the way they talk 
                      D
        They knock me out when I'm down there
             G                                F
        The midwest farmers' daughters really make you feel alright
                 C         
        And the Northern girls with the way they kiss
                        D
        They keep their boyfriends warm at night

Chorus:
          G                  Am7
        I wish they all could be California,
          F                   Gm7
        I wish they all could be California,
          Eb                  Fm7           G
        I wish they all could be California Girls

Verse 2:
                                                 F
        The West coast has the sunshine, and the girls all get so tanned
                      C
        I dig a French bikini on Hawaiian Island dolls
                  D
        By a palm tree in the sand
             G                                          F
        I been all around this great big world and I've seen all kinds of girls
                C
        But I couldn't wait to get back in the states,  
                             D
        Back to the cutest girls in the world

Chorus:
          G                  Am7
        I wish they all could be California,
          F                   Gm7
        I wish they all could be California,
          Eb                  Fm7           G
        I wish they all could be California Girls

Outro -repeat-:
          G                                  Am7
        I wish they all could be California girls
        -wish they all could be California-

This sounds slightly better to me: (added Em in some places instead of G) (unfortunately ukutabs is pretty limited in terms of comment formatting, you may have to figure out where in each line to play each chord if you’re following this instead)

C Em Am
Oceans apart day after day
F G C
And I slowly go insane
C Em Am
I hear your voice on the line
F G Am
But it doesn’t stop the pain

Am F
If I see you next to never
Am F
How can we say forever

C G
Wherever you go
G Am
Whatever you do
Am F G C
I will be right here waiting for you
C G
Whatever it takes
G F Am
Or how my heart breaks
Am F G C
I will be right here waiting for you
