Introduction: C Em Am G F C G C
C G Am Em
I grew up in a big white house on a quiet street in a peaceful town,
F C G C
Where everyone seems happy, but that's not the kind of life I dream of...
Pre-Chorus
Dm Am
And I'll write the perfect song.
Dm Fm
And I'll find a different way to sing it.
C Em Am G
Before it gets too late, I will make my big escape.
F C G C
Say goodbye to yesterday, hello L.A.
C Em Am G
Won't forget where I came from, when I'm the man that I'll become.
F C G C
Yes I'm on my way, Hello L.A.
