Hollywood Nights Tab

by Bob Seger


                                        
She stood there bright as the sun on that california coast
                               (7th fret)
   He was a midwestern boy on his own
         
She looked at him with those soft eyes,
   
So innocent and blue
                                       (7th fret)
   He knew right then he was too far from home 
                               (7 fret)
             he was too far from home
-------------------------------------------------------------
                                 
She took his hand and she led him along that golden beach

   They watched the waves tumble over the sand
  
They drove for miles and miles
         
Up those twisting turning roads
                                     (7 fret)
   Higher and higher and higher they climbed

(Chorus 1:)--------------------------------------------------

And those hollywood nights
           
In those hollywood hills
        
She was looking so right
         (7 fret)
In her diamonds and frills

Oh those big city nights
            
In those high rolling hills
  
Above all the lights
           (7 fret)
She had all of the skills
-------------------------------------------------------------
                                    
He'd headed west cause he felt that a change

Would do him good
                                    (7 fret)
    See some old friends, good for the soul
                                       
She had been born with a face that would let her

Get her way
                                     (7 fret)
    He saw that face and he lost all control
                                (7 fret)
             He had lost all control 
-------------------------------------------------------------
                           
Night after night, day after day, it went on and on
                                    (7 fret)
    Then came that morning he woke up alone
                                     
He spent all night staring down at the lights of L.A.
                               (7 fret)
    Wondering if he could ever go home

(Chorus 2:)--------------------------------------------------

And those hollywood nights
            
In those hollywood hills
        
It was looking so right
         (7 fret)
It was giving him chills

Oh those big city nights
            
In those high rolling hills
 
Above all the lights
          (7 fret)
With a passion that kills

(Repeat Chorus 1:)--------------------------------------------
