I'm in Los Angeles today...
ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
It smells like an airport runway.
ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Jet fuel stenches in the cabin
ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And lights flickering at random.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I'm in Los Angeles today...
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Garbage cans comprise the medians of freeways always creaping
ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Even when the population's sleeping.
ch]D[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And I can't see why you'd want to live here.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I'm in Los Angeles today...
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Asked a gas station employee if he ever had trouble breathing
ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And he said "It varies from season to season, kid."
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
It's where our best are on display...
ch]C[/ch
Motion picture actors' houses
ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Maps are never ever current
ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
So save your film and $15.
ch]D[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And I can't see why you'd want to live here.
ch]D[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Billboards reach past the tallest buildings,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
"We are not perfect - but we sure try."
ch]D[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
As UV rays "degraded" our youth with time.
Bridge:
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The vessel keeps pumping us through this zentropic place
ch]A7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
In the belly of the beast that is Californ-i-a,
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I drank from a faucet and I kept my receipts
ch]A7[/ch
For when the weigh me on my way out
ch]C[/ch
(Here nothing is free).
ch]Em[/ch
The greyhounds keep coming
ch]G[/ch
Dumping locusts into the street
ch]A7[/ch
Until the gutters overflow
ch]C[/ch
And Los Angeles thinks,
(single percussive strums)
[ch]C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] (let it ring)
"I might explode
someday soon."
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
It's a lovely summer's day
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And I can almost see a skyline through a thickening shroud of egos.
ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
(Is this the city of Angeles or demons?)
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Here the names are what remain...
ch]C[/ch
Stars encapsulate the golden age
ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And they need constant cleaning for when the tourists begin salivating.
ch]D[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And I can't see why you'd want to live here.
ch]D[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Billboards reach past the tallest buildings,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
You can't swim in a town this shallow -
ch]D[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
as you will most assuredly drown tomorrow
