F Bb C F F/A

I was sitting in the Hollywood Hawaiian Hotel

Bb C Dm

I was staring in my empty coffee cup,

A A7 Dm Gm

I was thinking that the gypsy wasn't lyin',

Fsus4 F Csus4

C

All the salty margaritas in Los Angeles, I'm gonna drink 'em up

Bb C Bb F

And if California slides into the ocean,

Bb Am Gm F

Like the mystics and statistics say it will,

Ddim6 Am Gm F

I predict this Motel will be standing, until I pay my bill.

(Bb - C)

Bb Am Gm C F

But don't the sun look angry through the trees,

Bb Am Gm C Dm

Don't the trees look like crucified thieves,

Dm Gm7

Don't you feel like desperados under the eaves,

Gm7 Csus4 C Fsus4 F

Heaven help the one who leaves.

Gm Dm

Still waking up in the morning with shaking hands,

F C Dm

And I'm trying to find a girl who understands me,

A A7 Dm C

But except in dreams you're never really free,

Bb Am Gm C F

Don't the sun look angry at me.

Bb C F F/A

I was sitting in the Hollywood Hawaiian Hotel,

Bb C Dm

I was listening to the air conditioner hum, It went,

(Dm F/C F) (Bb F C)

Ummm

Look away down, Gower avenue, look away.
