C                          F     G                      C
Well I went to a Hollywood party, bunch of drunken damn fools
C              F       G                         C
Jumpin off the rooftop, into the neighbors pool
C              F                     G                           Am
Same old conversations, you wanna be famous, or you wanna be cool
C                F                  G
Guess I better go home, before I hit someone


[Chorus]

           F                G                C
Cause this L.A. Livin ain’t like it was back home
     F                          G                   C
It’s warm in the winter and the wind never gets too strong
     F                  C                      F 
Sometimes I think about you, I hope your not alone
C                                     G                C
I hope that you and my old dog, ain’t mad at me no more


[Verse 2]

C                          F     G                          C
Last night I went to see Phillip, and his band down in echo park
C                       F         G                      C
Which their callin’ the back beat, Johnny on the bass guitar
C                   F          G                       Am
It sounded so good to me, lord knows he’s come so far
C                      F                      G
Drinkin’ in the back streets, and cryin’ on a hardwood floor


[Chorus 2]

         F                G                C
And this L.A. Livin ain’t like it was down south
     F                          G                      C
When someone gets to singin some fucker won’t shut his mouth
     F                       C                        F 
I don’t know if I’ll make it but I bet I’ll knock him out
C                                     G                   C
See how he talks about punk rock with his jaw wired shut


[Repeat chorus 1]

         F                G                C
And this L.A. Livin ain’t like it was back home
     F                          G                   C
It’s warm in the winter and the wind never gets too strong
     F                  C                      F 
Sometimes I think about you, I hope your not alone
C                                     G            C
I hope that you and my old dog, ain’t mad at me no more


[Tag]

C                                     G            C
I hope that you and my old dog, ain’t mad at me no more
