Little Hollywood Girl - The Everly Brothers
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Written by: Gerry Goffin/Jack Keller
Recorded in 1962
Now on: "From Nashville To Hollywood"
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard
There are two released versions of this song: The "Nashville Version",
featuring prominent piano and chromatic guitar licks, is in C, the
"Hollywood Version", more in the traditional Everly Brothers style
but with female voices echoing some of the phrases, is in B. I chose
the second one here as it is easier to sing.

But when you go to audition you never get the part

You're only one of a million girls in a town without a heart

Put your make up away

B G#m B G#m
The Marquee lights you are dazzled by don't shine your name

You know your chances are slimmer now and you're sorry you came

E
I know it's so hard to quit

You hate to admit you made a mista-a-ake

You lived with only one dream
To be on the screen

And waking up is hard to take

It's just not meant to be
E
Little Hollywood girl
F# B
Better come home to me
