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

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