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

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]
