[Verse 1]
C#m G# A E D#
It’s hard havin’ a heart in the city
C#m G# A E D#
Look at the stars, waiting for someone to tell you you’re pretty; you’re enough
C#m G# A E D#
So it goes, I don’t know, what the feeling’s like to be comfortable
C#m G#
With a stranger in your skin
A E G#
Don’t know why you let them in
[Chorus]
C#m
We used to talk about the fakers in LA
G#
But now you’re one of ‘em and damn it hurts to say
A E G#7/B#
I should have seen it comin’ from a mile away, a mile away
C#m
You always wanted to take before you give
G#
But what’s the fun of it
A E
I don’t know how you live with yourself in your Hollywood house in the hills
G#7/B#
Gives me chills
C#m
City of angels
[Interlude]
C#m G# A E D#
[Verse 2]
C#m G# A E D#
Used to say, if you ever made it I’d be the first call
C#m G#
And life would stay fairly the same
A E D#
Oh our friendship wouldn’t change at all
C#m G#
But you busted haven’t talked in a year
A E
I mistrusted, now it’s all coming clear
G#7/B#
That you only think of yourself
E G#
May be loved, but you’re lonely as hell, oh
[Chorus]
C#m
We used to talk about the fakers in LA
G#
But now you’re one of ‘em, I guess you got your way
A E D#
I bet you’re tired of all the games you had to play, you had to play
C#m
You always wanted to take before you give
G#
But what’s the fun of it
A E
I don’t know how you live with yourself in your Hollywood house in the hills
D#
Gives me chills
[Bridge]
A
City of angels
G# G#7/B#
Thats what they call us, right?
C#m
Wish you were able
E
To see there’s so much more to life
A
Than fortune and fame, validation and pain
G# G#7/B# C#m E
When you always want more, there’s nothing to gain
[Chorus]
C#m
We used to talk about the fakers in LA
G#
But now you’re one of ‘em and damn it hurts to say
A E G#7/B#
Damn it hurts to say
C#m
You always wanted to take before you give
G#
But what’s the fun of it

I don’t know how you live with yourself in your Hollywood house in the hills
