     E
In a matter of time
	      D
There'll be a friend of mine
      Bm
Gonna come to the coast
	     A
You're gonna see him
	       E
Up close for a minute or two
	  D		G
While the ground cracks under you.


       E
By the look in your eyes
		 D
You'd think that it was a surprise
	Bm
But you seem to forget
	  A
Something somebody said
	  E
About the bubbles in the sea
       D     G
And an ocean full of trees

Cmaj7	     Fmaj7  Cmaj7  Fmaj7
And you now, L.A.,  	   Uptight
Cmaj7		  Fmaj7
City in the smog, city in the smog
Cmaj7					    Fmaj7
Don't you wish that you could be here too?
Cmaj7					    Fmaj7
Don't you wish that you could be here too?
Cmaj7					    Fmaj7
Don't you wish that you could be here too?

	   E
Well, it's hard to believe
       D
So you get up to leave
	Bm
And you laugh at the door
	 A
That you heard it all before
	E
Oh it's so good to know
	  D	     G
That it's all just a show for you


	     E
But when the suppers are planned
	D
And the freeways are crammed
	Bm
And the mountains erupt
	A
And the valley is sucked
     E
Into cracks in the earth
       D	  G		Cmaj7
Will I finally be heard by you

Fmaj7	Cmaj7	Fmaj7
L.A.,		Uptight
Cmaj7		  Fmaj7
City in the smog, city in the smog.
Cmaj7					    Fmaj7
Don't you wish that you could be here too?
Cmaj7					    Fmaj7
Don't you wish that you could be here too?
Cmaj7					    Fmaj7
Don't you wish that you could be here too?
