Well it'^Ams raining it's pouring, you didn't bring a sweater Ne^Ambraska'll never ^D7/F#let you come back hom^Ee ^F#7 ^Gm ^G#m

^AmHollywood and Vine by the Thrifty Mart sign any night I'll be ^D7/F#willin' to bet ^E ^F#7 ^Gm ^G#m

There's a ^Amyoung girl with sweet little dreams and pretty blue wishes standin' there^D/F# just ^Egettin' all ^Amwet

And there's a ^Amplace off the drag called the Gilbert Hotel and there's a couple letters ^D7/F#burned out in the sig^En ^F#7 ^Gm ^G#m

And it's ^Ambetter than a bus stop they do good business every time it rains for little girls with nothing in their jeans ^D7/F# but prett^Ey blue wish^Ames and sweet little jeans

And it's ^Amraining it's pouring, the old man is snoring Now I lay me down to sleep

I hear the sirens in the street All my dreams are made of chrome

I ^D7/F#have no way to ^Eget b^F#7ack h^Gmome ^G#m I'd ^Amrather die before I wake like Marilyn Monroe^D7/F# and you could ^Amthrow my dreams out in the street and let the ^D7/F#rain ^Emake 'em grow^Am

with sweet little ^D7/F#wishes and ^Epretty blue ^Amdreams And it's ^Amraining it's pouring and Hollywood's just ^D7/F#fine ^AmSwindle a little girl out of her dreams another ^Eletter ^F#7in the ^Gmsign ^G#m

No, that ^Amain't no cherry bomb 4th of July's all ^D/F#done

Just some fool playin' that second line

from the ^D7/F#barrel of a ^Epretty blue ^Amgun No, that ^Amain't no cherry bomb 4th of July's all ^D/F#done
