C         F              G7           C
I went to Hollywood, the timing was peculiar
                    F                   G7             Am
Palm trees like you said there was, the viper room was up there
F                    G7            F                 G7
Saw your face in the window there, like a light from everywhere
C         F             G7           C    F  G7  C
I went to Hollywood and I barely got out

[Verse 2]
                      F               G7            C
I cut my teeth in the middle west but I was born to ramble
                     F                     G7            Am
Hit the brakes and I pull to the left, and every day’s a battle
F                  G7            F                     G7
Pointed west and I hit the road, where the streets are paved with gold
C        F             G7                C      F  G7  C
I got to Hollywood and I pulled over and cried

[Bridge]
F                                 C        F                               G7    C  F  G7   C  F  G7  C
Thought that I might meet a movie star.....Ended up flat-drunk in the Ramo bar

[Verse 3]
                       F               G7            C
Now everybody moved to Silver Lake and no one sent a letter
                         F              G7                   Am
The rent is high but the view is great, I guess they like it better
F                      G7            F                    G7
Spent the night on the street alone, guess that I'll just head back home
C         F             G7              C     F  G7  C
I went to Hollywood but I showed up too late
