My version is without capo.
It is for the people who don't want to play songs with capo's.
I hope it helps you!
B
Goodbye cold, goodbye rain
B
Goodbye sorrow, goodbye shame
E
I'm headed out west with my headphones on
E                                              B
Boarded a flight with a song in the back of my soul
B
And no one knows
  F#
I just found out her ghost left town
    E                                           B
The Queen of California is stepping down, down
      B
Hello beauty, hello strange
      B
Hello wonder, what's your name?
E
Looking for the sun that Neil Young hung
E                        B
After the gold rush of 1971
  F#
I just found out her ghost left town
    E                                          B
The Queen of California is stepping down, down
[INSTRUMENTAL](It's just the B)
B
If you see her say, "Hello"
B
Just don't tell me, "I told you so"
E
Joni wrote Blue in her house by the sea
E                                                B
I gotta believe there’s another color waiting on me
B
To set me free
  F#
I just found out her ghost left town
    E                                         B
The Queen of California is stepping down, down
