E                                                                         A/E  
She stood there bright as the sun on that California coast  
D/E                                                      E  
He was a mid-western boy on his own  
                                                                                  A/E  
She looked at him with those soft eyes, so innocent and blue  
D/E                                                                   E   
He knew right then he was too far from home he was too far from home  
E                                                                A/E  
She took his hand and she led him along that golden beach  
D/E                                                                      E  
They watched the waves tumble over the sand  
                                                                              A/E  
They drove for miles and miles, up those twisting turning roads  
                                                               E  
Higher and higher and higher they climbed  

Chorus  
                           E                                            A/E  
And those Hollywood nights, In those Hollywood hills  
                   D/E                                     E   
She was looking so right, In her diamonds and frills  
                                                               A/E  
All those big city nights, In those high rolling hills  
D/E                                                  E  
Above all the lights, She had all of the skills  

He'd headed west cause he felt that a change  
would do him good  
See some old friends, good for the soul  
She had been born with a face that would let her  
get her way  
He saw that face and he lost all control  
He had lost all control  

Night after night, day after day, it went on and on  
Then came that morning he woke up alone  
He spent all night staring down at the lights of L.A.  
Wondering if he could ever go home  

Chorus  


D   A   E         E  A/E    D/E    E
