(CN.C.)I left my (C)heart

in San (Cdim)Fran (Dm)cis co,

high on a hill

it (G)calls to (C)me

to be where lit tle ca ble cars

climb (Bm)half way to the stars.

The (E7)morn ing (Am)fog

may chill the (G7)air;

I don’t care.

(CN.C.)My love waits (C)there,

in San (Cdim)Fran (Dm)cis co,

a bove the (G7)blue

and wind y (E)sea.

When I come (A)home

to (A7)you,

San Fran (D7)cis co,

your gold en (Dm7)sun

will shine

(G)for

(C)me!
