_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Check the locks and leave the [Gm] keys _
[Bb] _ _ Moldy bath masked with Febreze
_ Something's dead behind the [Gm] refrigerator _ Some [Dm] poor [Bb] fuck will deal with it later
_ _ I've spent the last ten weeks _ Squeezing out the sponge of friendships, plugging
leaks I've talked until there's no more to say _
_ _ _ I'm going _ away _ [Bb] _ _ I'm leaving L _ _ _ .A.
I'm leaving L.A.
On a tour of [C] the night, please give me the directions to the Hollywood sign
I always [Eb] dreamt of coming here to see the Hollywood sign
But on their way back down, we'll ask, did you have a good time?
The night is long, but I'm not going to wait
They'll say it's just some fucking letters on a hill
_ _ _ _ I [Bb] wander through the Brunson Caves One more okay coffee at the Oaks Gourmet
_ I watch the players at the UCB Trying to improvise their way out of Ennui
_ _ Walking trails in the creeping dark Up to the [Bb] observatory in Griffith Park
_ _ There's too much light for [Gm] stars anyway _ _ [Bb] I'm getting out of [Eb] this place
_ _ _ I'm leaving [Gm] L.A.
_ [Bb] _ I'm leaving [Eb] L.A.
Hey, hey, I'm the [C] studio executive who never made a thing
Blaming others for their fame, just taking credit for their wins
Wiping the blood off dumb artists from their chins
A singing kid, your home ticket personally
_ _ _ _ [Gm] On Hollywood and Vine, a dime store Spider [Gm]-Man
Shouting at a stone, Emma [Eb] Stone Dressed a la la la land
And in the [Bb] distance in both [Eb] its glorious [Gm] dimensions
[Eb] The sign projects its shadow on the hill _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Rushing [Bb] by machine-gunned cops at LAX _ _ Malfunctioning [F] departure board says we're boarding [C] next _
_ [Bb] Belt off, shoes off, jacket off, hat Don't need the attitude but [F] I quite enjoy
the subsequent [F] pat down And I'm sat [Bb] down as the A380 engine roars
[C] Pushed backwards as [Bb] this tube of monkeys rumbles [C] forwards
Looking forward to another 20 hours on a plane _
_ [F] Nothing but shit films on my _ brain I've been going slowly [Eb] _ insane
[Bb] I see sports and I don't wanna play [Eb] _
I'm [F] getting out of [Gm] this place
I'm getting [Dm] out of this place I'm leaving L [Eb].A. _ _
[C] I'm doing gratitude drinking on drinkable juice
[Eb] And agents taking campus and in their sneakers and suits
[C] And the riders in their Teslas trying to punch a back one
[Eb] Driving over the 101 [Ebm] and on _ _ [C] the meeting and the greeting and the homeless and horny
[Eb] And the deals done on treadmills at ten to six in the morning
And [C] captains and the V.A. say look for the sign
[Eb] Just some pretty letters on a hill Just some really ugly letters
On a pretty ugly [Bb] hill _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ I'm leaving L.A.
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [D] I'm [Eb] leaving L.A.
