Jerry Jeff Walker - L.A. Freeway guitar chord

LA Freeway

Jerry Jeff Walker

written by Guy Clark

I've seen JJW play it like this with a capo on 3

but I think capo on 2 sounds better.

G

Pack up all your dishes

C

Make note of all good wishes

G

Say goodby to the landlord for me

D

That sum-bitch has always bored me

G

Throw out them old LA papers

C

And that moldy box of vanilla wafers

G

Adios to all this concrete

D

Gonna get me some dirt road back street

CHORUS

C D

If I can just get off of that LA freeway

G C

Without getting killed or caught

G Em

Down that road in a cloud of smoke

C D

For some land that I ain't bought bought bought

Here's to you old skinny Dennis

Only one I think I will miss

I can hear them old bass men singing

Sweet and low like a gift you'd bring in

Play it for me just one more time now

Got to give it all we can now

I beleive everything your saying

Just keep on keep on playing

CHORUS

Put the pink slip in the mailbox

Leave the key in the old front door lock

They will find it likely as not

With all the things that we have forgot

Oh Susanna now don't you cry, babe

Love's a gift that's surely handmade

We've got something to believe in

Before you know it's time we're leavin'

CHORUS
