She left Dallas for California with an old friend at her side

G Cadd9 G Cadd9

Well they did not say much but one year later he’d asked her to be his wife

G Cadd9 G Cadd9

And the lights of LA County, they look like diamonds in the sky

G Cadd9 G Cadd9

When your drivin’ through the hours with an old friend at your side

Chord progression same thoughout song till end

One year later I left Houston with an old friend at my side

Well he did not say much but it was a beauty of a coal black .45

And the lights of LA County, they look like diamonds in the sky

When your driving through the hours with an old friend at your side

So I drove on all the day long and I drove on through the night

and I thought of her awaiting for to be his blushing bride

And the lights of LA County they look like diamonds in the sky

As I drove in to the valley with my old friend at my side

And as she stood there at the alter all dressed in her gown of white

Lord, her face was bright as the stars a-shining, like I dreamed of all my life

And they kissed each other and they turned around and saw me standing in the aisle

G Cadd9 D G

Well I did not say much, I just stood there watching as that .45 told them goodbye

Cadd9 G D G

And the lights of LA County look like diamonds in the sky

Cadd9 G D G

When your kneeling at the alter with an old friend at your side

And the lights of LA County are a mighty pretty sight

When your kneeling at the alter with an old friend at your side
