[x2]
VERSE 1:
[G#] She stood there bright as the sun on that
[C#/G#] california coast
[F#/G#] He was a midwestern boy on his
[G#] own
[G#] She looked at him with those soft eyes, so
[C#/G#] innocent and blue
[F#/G#] He knew right then he was too far from
[G#] home
BREAK:
[G#] Ooh
[C#/G#], he was too far from
[F#/C#] home
[G#]
VERSE 2:
[G#] She took his hand and she led him a-
[C#/G#]-long that golden beach
[F#/G#] They watched the waves tumble over the
[G#] sand
[G#] They drove for miles and miles, up those
[C#/G#] twisting turning roads
[F#/G#] Higher and higher and higher they
[G#] climbed
CHORUS:
And those
[G#] hollywood nights; in those
[C#/G#] hollywood hills
She was
[F#/G#] looking so right; in her
[G#] diamonds and frills
All those
[G#] big city nights; in those
[C#/G#] high rolling hills
A-
[F#/G#]-bove all the lights; she had
[G#] all of the skills
INSTRUMENTAL: [F#] [C#] [G#] ^

VERSE 3:
[G#] He'd headed west 'cause he felt that a
[C#/G#] change would do him good
[F#/G#] See some old friends, good for the
[G#] soul
[G#] She had been born with a face that would
[C#/G#] let her get her way
[F#/G#] He saw that face and he lost all con-
[G#]-trol
BREAK:
[G#] Yeah
[C#/G#] , he had lost all con-
[F#/G#]-trol
[G#]
VERSE 4:
[G#] Night after night, day after day, it went
[C#/G#] on and on
[F#/G#] Then came that morning he woke up a-
[G#]-lone
[G#] He spent all night staring down at the lights of
[C#/G#] L.A.
[F#/G#] Wondering if he could ever go
[G#] home
REPEAT CHORUS: [x3]
