Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

A (for about 4 bars, slowly increasing the volume), then

L.A.'s asleep

 you roll up your window

The night air is cold

 The freeway is clear

 In a green Gucci bag

 Are your prized posessions

 The jewels of your mind

 To hold back the fear

Chorus

 And when monday comes round

 There's a high lonesome sound

 And she follows you down for the kill

 And a white blinding light

 Makes it all seem so right

 And you feel like a king of the hill

Verse 2

The driveway is long

Your princess is lovely

Your servants all wait

For your knock on the door

How many years

Will you crawl through this castle

So satisfied

And still wanting more

Chorus

Verse 3

The guests have arrived

With all the right faces

But you missed the ball

In that room down the hall

It's sunrise again

The driveway is empty

The crystal is cracked

There's blood on the wall

Chorus x2

"I wanna find myself a girl

Who can show me what laughter means

And we'll fill in the missing colors

In each others paint-by-number dreams" -- Jackson Browne
