When I was a young, I had a dream                     (semi-P.M.)
Movin' to the city sight unseen
19 years of age I'm packin' my bags 
Hollywood was all the rage 
I came to you in 1984
You showed me in, then you shut the door
It didn't take me long to learn to play the game
A kick in the head always feels the same              (w/o B5)

  A5      C5                    A5     ^c♯^b^c♯^b^...
  Los Angeles, you're a fuckin' whore
  Hollywood, you're an open sore

(B5) F♯5  C5 G5  D5  F♯5  C5 G5  B5

I played it well, and I played it fast
Livin' slow was in the past
Chicks and drugs and gettin' burnt
Just a few of the things I learnt
Got sick and tired of bein' scared as hell
A wasted man, just a shell of myself
But that was then, and this is now
My pretty baby, I've changed somehow

  Los Angeles, you've lost your grip
  Drugs and lies and whores suckin' dick, yeah

    E5                      F5 C5                  F5  C5    
    I don't know if I could do things differently
    L.A. had me for so long
    When I look I can see things differently
    What doesn't kill me makes me strong

A5A5  E5E5  G5G5  G♯°G♯°  x 2  (3/4, punché)  w/ Strong, strong 

Los Angeles, I didn't sell my soul to you             (xD5D5 xD/ED/E xD5D5 xD5D5)
Los Angeles, you thought you would kill me
You thought you would kill me
You thought you could take me down
You thought you would kill me
Fuck that, power to me, yeah                           g^^^^

A5  C5  A5    x 2  w/ solo                            (Loaded: refrain direct)

  Los Angeles, you're a fuckin' whore
  A kick in the head, for at least my gore, yeah

   Refrain  4e: I get up, I grow out, and now I'm strong, and now I'm strong

(basse  ef♯ ef♯ ef♯f♯f♯f♯ef♯  f♯g  f♯g f♯ggggf♯g)

Sometimes it goes like this                           (w/ xx  xx xxxxxxx)
Sometimes it's the only way - TO LEARN
