Dm C x4 Dm Los Angelenos C All come from somewhere Dm To live in sunshine C Their funky exile Dm Midwestern ladies C High-heeled and faded Dm Drivin' sleek new sports cars C With their New York cowboys Bb Hiding up in the mountains Am Laying low in the canyons F Goin' nowhere on the streets C With the Spanish names Bb Makin' love with the natives Am In their Hollywood places F Bb/C F G C Making up for all the time gone by Dm Los Angelenos C All come from somewhere Dm Cuz it's all so easy C To become acquainted Dm Electric babies C Blue-jeaned and jaded Dm Such hot sweet schoolgirls C So educated Bb Tanning out in the beaches Am With their Mexican reefers F No one ever has to feel C Like a refugee Bb Going into garages Am For exotic massages F Bb/C F G C Making up for all the time gone by Dm C Dm C Dm C Dm C Bb Hiding up in the mountains Am Laying low in the canyons F Goin' nowhere on the streets C With the Spanish names Bb Makin' love with the natives Am In their Hollywood places F Bb/C F G C Making up for all the time gone by Dm Los Angelenos C All come from somewhere Dm It's so familiar C Their foreign faces (repeat and fade out) Dm C
