Today I present the tab for Hollywood by Tobias Jesso Jr, which I assume will feature on his upcoming debut LP
entitled Goon, he's a really talented guy and I think a lot more people should listen to his music. Obviously
the original song is all played on the piano so I tried to translate the chords to guitar best I could, I think
it sounds pretty good as it is but you might want to play around with a couple of the chords to find the perfect
sound for you. Enjoy, as always.

INTRO
F Am Bb Gm F C
VERSE
F Am Gm Am Bb
I was looking forward to see where I was going,
C Bb Am G7
But I don't know if I can make it, no, I don't know if I could,
Bb Am G
Think I'm gonna try in Hollywood.
F Am Gm Am Bb
Well, I had to find my way by looking at the city,
C Bb Am G7
I don't know if I can fake it if they tell me I'm no good,
Bb Am G
I think I'm gonna fry in Hollywood.
CHORUS
F Am Bb
Well, I'm a man, I was brought up right,
Gm F C
I said my prayers every night since 1995,
Bb C Am Bb
And I pray, God help me, I've done the best I could,
Am G
But I think I'm gonna die in Hollywood,
Bb Am C
Think I'm gonna die in Hollywood.
F Am Gm C Bb
So I found the best advice; go and get a job,
C Bb Am G
But I don't know if I can take it cause I never understood,
Bb Am G
How everybody lies in Hollywood.
F Am Gm C Bb
Somewhere, I lost my mind; it's never coming back,
C Bb Am G
And I don't know if I can make it and I don't know if I should,
Bb Am G
I think I'll say goodbye to Hollywood.
CHORUS

Well, I'm a man, I was brought up right,

But I think I'm gonna die in Hollywood,

Think I'm gonna die in Hollywood,
Bb Am G
Think I'm gonna die in Hollywood.
