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

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