[Verse]
Emaj7 F#6 G#m /F# /G# B /C# /D#
Miller time at the bar where all the English meet
Emaj7 F#6 G#m /F# /G# B /C# /D#
She used to drink in the hills Only now she drinks in the valleys
Emaj7 F#6 G#m /F# /G# B /C# /D#
Where every road has a name like Beachwood Avenue Or so it seems
Emaj7 F#6 G6
A Croydon gi-rl
G/A Em7 Bm7
could really hope to find a home
Em7 A7 Bm7
But with a thousand miles of real estate to choose from
Em7 A6
You begin to see the value of your freedom
Emaj7 F#6 G#m B /C# /D#
The moon is bright in the haze above old Hollywood
Emaj7 F#6 G#m B /C# /D#
And deer look down from the hills And it's three o'clock in the morning
Emaj7 F#6 G#m B /C# /D#
Pill in hand you can hear his golden surfer boys
Emaj7 F#6 G6
Crying out,
G/A
mommy won't come out of the bathroom
Bm7 Em7 A
And you'd hoped he'd say he's sorry if he hit you
Bm7 Em7 A6
But he's buried in the screenplay of his feature
[Chorus]
Bm7 Em7
Screen kiss, one screened kiss
G/A
Straight from a film I forget who was in
Bm7 Em7
Screen kiss, one screen kiss
G/A
Blue filter lens, in a pool of Vaseline
D Bm/D
But all the rushes look the same
G/D D Bm Bm7
Only there's a movie I wouldn't pay to see again
Em7 G/A Amaj7
If it's the one with him in
Emaj7 F#6 G#m /F# /G# B /C# /D#
You and I could be a mile above the earth tremors
Emaj7 F#6 G#m /F# /G# B /C# /D#
Hold to me and we'll climb You could sneak out while he's sleeping
Emaj7 F#6 G#m /F# /G# B /C# /D#
Suicide in the hills above old Hollywood
Emaj7 F#6 G
Is never going to change the world
G/A Bm7
Change the world overnight
Em7 /D G/A Bm7
Any more than the invention of the six-gun, child
Em7 /D A7 Bm7
Any more than the discovery of radium
Em7 A6 /G
Or California tipping in the ocean
Bm7 Em7 /D
Screen kiss, one screened kiss
G/A /G /A /G
Straight from a film I forget who was in
Bm7 /A Em7 /D
Screen kiss, one screen kiss
G/A /G /A /G
Blue filter lens, in a pool of Vaseline
D Bm/D
But all the rushes look the same
G/D D Bm Bm7/A
Only there's a movie I wouldn't pay to see again
Em7 G/A
If it's the one
Em7 A7
with him in
