L.A. Song

L.A. Song - Beth Hart
tabbed by: Kaneminded

intro: G - Bm - Am - Cadd9


Couplet:
G          Bm
She hangs around the boulevard
Am            Cadd9
She's a local girl with local scars
G     Bm
She got home late
Am               Cadd9
She drank so hard the bottle ached
G       Bm
& she tried
Am                     Cadd9
but nothin's clear in a bar full a flies
G        Bm
So she takes
Am                          Cadd9
She understands when she gives it away
She says

chorus:
G               Cadd9  D   Dsus
Man I gotta get outta this town
Man I gotta get outta this pain
Man I gotta get outta this town
Cadd9          Dsus
Outta this town & out of L.A.

Couplet:
She's gotta gun
She got a gun she calls the lucky one
She left a note right by the phone
Don't leave a message 'cause this ain't no home
& she cried
She cried so long her tears ran dry
Then she laughed
'Cause she knew she was never comin' back
She said

chorus:
Man I'm gonna get outta this town
Man I'm gonna get outta this pain
Man I'm gonna get outta this town
Outta this town & out of L.A.

Bridge:
Em              B5                    C5
It's all she loves It's all she hates It's all too much for her
Em                 B5
to take she can't be sure just where it ends or where
C5
the good life begins

Couplet:
So she took a train
to a little old town without a name
She met a man he took her in
but fed her all the same bullshit again
'Cause he lied
he lied like a salesman sellin' flies
So she screamed
it's a different place
but the same old thang

Bridge:
It's all I love It's all I hate It's all too much for me to take
I can't be sure where it begins or if the good life lies within

Chorus (easy):
So she said
Man I gotta get out of this town
Yeah now I gotta get back on that train
Man I gotta get out of this town
I'm outta my pain
So I'm goin' back to L.A.
