Introduction:
G Am7 A7/4
The Sun going down on a little beach town out west
G Am7 A72
A wide open highway a window seat on a jet
G
The sound of a train pulling out of the station
Am7 G/B
A man like me should find inspiration in anything
Am7 A7/4 Am7
But here I am in this hotel room
Chorus
G
You on a sunny Santa Monica freeway
Am7
You on a bed and a mini bar three day
C9 G G4
Haze with your hair and my heart all a mess in the morning
G
I've gotten drunk on whiskey and women
Am7
Woke up in places that we've never been in
C9 Am7
Spending all night and all day trying to sing something new
Am7
But it's no use
G Am7
I'm still writing songs about you
Verse
G Am7 A7/4
A pawn shop in Dallas cut me a deal on a six string
G Am7 A72
It doesn't know how you look how you laugh how you kiss me
G
Well I'm on the edge of the bed and it's way past two
Am7
I'm stuck on a line cause I know what rhymes with blue
Chorus
G
You on a sunny Santa Monica freeway
Am7
You on a bed and a mini bar three day
C9 G G4
Haze with your hair and my heart all a mess in the morning
G
I've gotten drunk on whiskey and women
Am7
Woke up in places that we've never been in
C9 Am7
Spending all night and all day trying to sing something new
G
But I'm still writing songs about you
