🎶 Jesus in LA

tone [A#]
==

Verse1
Well, I shook [Dm7] hands with the devil
[A#] Down on the south side
And he [Db] bought us both a [Am7] drink
With a [Dm7] pad and a pencil [A#] sat by his side
I said, [Db] "Tell me what [Am7] you think"

Pre-chorus
I've been [Dm7] looking for my [A#] savior, looking for my truth
I [Db] even asked [Am7] my shrink
He brought me [Dm7] down to his level
[A#] Said, "Son, you're not special
You won't [Db] find him where [Am7] you think"

Chorus
You won't find him down on [Dm7] Sunset [A#]
Or at a party in the [Db] hills [Bb]
At the bottom of the [Dm7] bottle [A#]
Or when you're tripping on some [Db] pills [Bb]
When they [Dm7] sold you the dream [A#] you were just 16
Packed a [Db] bag and ran [Bb] away
And it's a crying [Dm7] shame you came all [A#] this way
'Cause you won't find [Db] Jesus in [Bb] LA
And it's a crying [Eb] shame you came all [A#] this way
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA

Instrumental
[Eb] [A#] [Db] [Bb]
[Eb] [A#] [Db] [Bb]

Verse2
Took a [Dm7] sip of his whiskey
[A#] Said, "Now that you're with me
Well, I [Db] think that you [Am7] should stay"
Yeah, I [Dm7] know you've been [A#] busy searching through the city
So [Db] let me share [Am7] the way

Pre-chorus
I [Dm7] know I'm not your [A#] savior know I'm not your truth
But I [Db] think we could [Am7] be friends
He said "Come [Dm7] down to my level
[Am7] Hang out with the devil
Let me [Db] tell you, in [Am7] the end

Chorus
You won't find him down on [Dm7] Sunset [A#]
Or at a party in the [Db] hills [Bb]
At the bottom of the [Dm7] bottle [A#]
Or when you're tripping on some [Db] pills [Bb]
When they [Dm7] sold you the dream [A#] you were just 16
Packed a [Db] bag and ran [Bb] away
And it's a crying [Dm7] shame you came all [A#] this way
'Cause you won't find [Db] Jesus in [Bb] LA
And it's a crying [Eb] shame you came all [A#] this way
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA

Bridge
[A#] And that is when I knew that it was time to go home
[G/B] And that is when I realized that I was alone
[Bb] And all the vibrant colors from the lights fade away
[Em] And I don't care what they say [Db]

Chorus
You won't find him down on [Dm7] Sunset [A#]
Or at a party in the [Db] hills [Bb]
At the bottom of the [Dm7] bottle [A#]
Or when you're tripping on some [Db] pills [Bb]
When they [Dm7] sold you the dream [A#] you were just 16
Packed a [Db] bag and ran [Bb] away
And it's a crying [Dm7] shame you came all [A#] this way
'Cause you won't find [Db] Jesus in [Bb] LA
You won't find him down on [Dm7] Sunset [A#]
Or at a party in the [Db] hills [Bb]
At the bottom of the [Dm7] bottle [A#]
Or when you're tripping on some [Db] pills [Bb]
When they [Dm7] sold you the dream [A#] you were just 16
Packed a [Db] bag and ran [Bb] away
And it's a crying [Dm7] shame you came all [A#] this way
'Cause you won't find [Db] Jesus in [Bb] LA
And it's a crying [Eb] shame you came all [A#] this way
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA⠀⠀
