[Verse]
There is Fmtreasure hidden there, on the coast of California
El Diego hid it Abthere Fmwhen the Clera ran aground
On the coast of California, deep withEbin a Dbmaj7cave that's never Cseen
FmTreasure, stolen from the EbIncas, Dbmaj7we could capture for the CQueen
[Verse]
There's a Fmmountain in the ocean, on the coast of California
And deep within its Abside, the Fmtides of night alone reveal
El Diego's hidden cave, where we'll Ebplunder the Dbmaj7riches of GreCnada
FmWhile the Spaniard, blind with Ebpleasure, Dbmaj7plays ashore in EnseCnada
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
We will Fmsail before the dawn along the coast of California
El Diego is deAblayed, the Fmwine and woman hold their sway
And our map is clearly drawn to the Ebdark and Dbmaj7stormy Cshore
FmOn the coast of CaliEbfornia Dbmaj7lies a mighty prize of Cwar
[Outro]
FmTell not a soul that you have Ebseen me
Dbmaj7Breathe not a word of what I Csay
FmTell not a soul that you have Ebseen me
Dbmaj7Breathe not a word of what I Csay
