Los Angeles Be Kind

C You exhaust me you know G Bellowing black exhaust pipe smoke F C And the smut won't wash from this unsuitable immigrant skin C Such a villainous grace G Oh I don't know what you've done to your face F C Some nights I can't figure out quite where your heart is G F C G F Oh Los Angeles, be kind C G F No more trouble or red lights C I can learn to love you in good time G F C Oh Los Angeles, be kind C I read you all wrong G So I get drunk just to feel I belong F C By a river so dry it's barely a river at all C And we suck one another at night G Fire pistols and cover our eyes F C And we waltz unseen behind Hollywood's ballroom doors G F C G F Oh Los Angeles, be kind C G F No more headaches or fist fights C We can live with each other G It just takes time F Oh Los Angeles, be kind C Take me to bed with a painkiller G Say goodnight F Oh Los Angeles, be kind
