I was star^Bbing in my em^Cpty coffee cup, ^Dm I was thin^Aking that the gypsy wasn't^A7 lyin', ^Dm ^Gm Fsus4 F Csus4 All the sal^Cty margaritas in Los Angeles, I'm gonna drink 'em up

And if Calif^Bbornia sli^Cdes into th^Bbe ocean, ^F Like ^Bbthe mystics an^Amd statistic^Gms say ^Fit will, ^Ddim6I predict this Motel^Am will be st^Gmanding, until I pay^F my bill. (Bb - C)

But don't the sun look ^Bbangr^Amy th^Gmrough ^Cthe trees, ^F Don't ^Bbthe tr^Amees look li^Gmke cru^Ccifie^Dmd thieves, Don't you feel lik^Dme desperados un^Gm7der the eaves, ^Gm7Heaven help the one ^Csus4who lea^Cves.^Fsus4 ^F

^GmStill waking^Dm up in the morning with shaking hands, And I^F'm trying to ^Cfind a g^Dmirl who understands me, Bu^At excep^A7t in dreams^Dm you'r^Ce never really free, Don't t^Bbhe s^Amun l^Gmook an^Cgry^F at me. I was sitt^Bbing in the ^CHollywo^Fod Hawaii^F/Aan Hotel, I was list^Bbening to the air condit^Cioner hum, It went, ^Dm

(Dm F/C F) (Bb F C) Ummm Look away down, Gower avenue, look away.
