[Intro] A7 Gmaj7 D5 [Verse 1]
A7         Gmaj7         D5
My biggest smile from Tokyo

 A7         Gmaj7         D5
You came out here five years ago

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Her life song is a sad one

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Her mom fell out when she was young

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Her mom died off when she was young
[Verse 2]
 A7         Gmaj7         D5
Purple nights and yellow days

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Neon signs and silver lakes

A7         Gmaj7         D5
LA took a part of me

A7         Gmaj7         D5
LA gave this gift to me
[Verse 3]
A7         Gmaj7         D5
So drive me down Sunset Boulevard

 A7         Gmaj7         D5
I'm feeling nice in your white car

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Playing Hanoi Rocks and Social D

 A7         Gmaj7         D5
My sweetest angel set me free

 A7         Gmaj7         D5
My sweetest saviour rescued me
[Verse 4]
 A7         Gmaj7         D5
Won't you whisper in my ear?

 A7         Gmaj7         D5
You look so good against my mirror

  A7         Gmaj7         D5
And you're my baby full of joy

A7         Gmaj7         D5
You're my erotic brown eyed toy

A7         Gmaj7         D5
You're my exotic black haired toy
[Solo 1] A7 Gmaj7 D5 [Verse 5]
 A7         Gmaj7         D5
Slipping letters under the door

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Leave candy wrappers round my floor

A7         Gmaj7         D5
And take me out of here round the canyons

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Where the pavement meets the sand

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Where the boardwalk creatures stand
[Verse 6]
A7         Gmaj7         D5
So drive down Beverly Drive

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Where my room's lit up all night

A7         Gmaj7         D5
I've been so lonely in this bed

A7         Gmaj7         D5
It's good to sleep with you instead

A7         Gmaj7         D5
It's good to talk all night instead
[Solo 2] A7 Gmaj7 D5 [Verse 7]
A7         Gmaj7         D5
Morning pours the ocean deep

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Into the hollow of my sleep

A7         Gmaj7         D5
But the ocean can't be mine

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Your perfection can't be mine
[Verse 8]
A7         Gmaj7         D5
So drive me down the 405

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Where my airplane leaves tonight

A7         Gmaj7         D5
I'm tipping up and touching down

A7         Gmaj7         D5
Leave LA sparkling on the ground

A7         Gmaj7         D5
LA glitters on the ground

A7         Gmaj7         D5
LA sparkles on the ground

A7         Gmaj7         D5
LA glitters on the ground

A7         Gmaj7         D5
LA sparkles on the ground
