[C]
[G] [C]
Here on [F] the outskirts [C] of life
[F] Dreams seldom [C] come true
[F] Flipping from book to [G] graph
[C] Emotion [G] of [Am] holograph
[C] Cutting through [F] all the figures you might [C] have been
Reflections of [Dm] a life [Am] that you [F] once lived
[C]
As the evening descends
[F] [Dm] You're conscious of [C] every breath
And every moment [F] is a crisis I [C] guess
Staring [F] out the window of your [Em] hotel room
[G] You let [C] one too many thoughts [Em] [Am] pass you by
[C]
Well I guess you [F] deserve the chosen [C] few
Real life [Dm] [Am] just [F]
as you
[G] That's just here [F]
on the outskirts
[G] Yeah that's here [F] on the outskirts
[C] Of your life
[F] [G] [C]
[Em] [Am]
[C] [Am] [F]
[C] [Am] [C]
[Dm] [Am]
[F] And [C] there's a picture we've all [F] seen
That's taken in the [C] lobby of the L.A. Ambassador Hotel
It's a silhouette of a [Dm] man in [C] another's arms
So
[F] turn off your [G] TVs
And [C] [Em] let that train go [Am] on
[C] Cause everyone warned you that [F] California
Wasn't gonna [C] be the end
California [Dm] [Am] wasn't gonna [F] be the end
Tell [C] me where'd you hide
[F] When the whole world is ugly [C] and strange
Yeah tell me where you're gonna turn
[F] When the whole world knows [C] you're in need
[F] And the whole [G] world's a-streamin'
And [C] all your friends were [G] [Am] so deceiving
[C] Yeah you [F] forgot the lines of a car you [C] rehearsed so well
Lying awake [Dm] in a Brazilian [F]
car hotel
[G] That's just here on [F]
the outskirts
[G] Yeah that's here on [F] the outskirts
[C]
Of your life
