[Intro] G Am C Am x4 [Verse 1]
      G              Am        G          C
Well, we all want a home, metaphorical or real

     Bm                Am
Some place to make us feel whole
G Am C Am x2 [Verse 2]
         G             Am           G               C
And the words to this song, while geographically specific

         Bm            Am
They could apply to anywhere,

                G Am C Am
or any of you

                    G Am G C
I'm talking to you
[Chorus]
          D
Waking up alive again

               C
But tryin' to stop the bleedin'

               G
That's how it is

                         D
But at least there's still the sky above

                       C
And you still love the feelin' of

              G Am C Am      G Am C Am
Waking up in Los Angeles

              G Am C Am      G Am C Am
Waking up in Los Angeles

                   G Am C Am
La la la la la la

                   G Am C Am
La la la la la la

                   G Am C Am
La la la la la la

                   G Am G C
La la la la la la
[Chorus]
             D
Waking up still dreamin'

                       C
And tryin' to hold on to that feelin'

           G
Oh my god, hold on

                      D
But at least you got a reason for

                        C
And at least you got the feel for

             G
How the days roll on

                  D
Waking up and you know it

                      C
It's got some kind of glow to it

                      G     C
When the light's just right

                       D
But at least you got a real love

               C
A love for the idea of

              G Am C Am    G Am C Am
Waking up in Los Angeles

              G Am C Am    G Am C Am
Waking up in Los Angeles
