[Verse 1]
Well, I shook [Dm]hands with the [C]devil
Down on the south side
And he b[G]ought us both a d[Am]rink
With a p[Dm]ad and a [C]pencil sat by his side
I said [G]“Tell me [Am]what you think”
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve been [Dm]looking for my [C]savior, looking for my truth
I e[G]ven asked [Am]my shrink
He brought me [Dm]down to [C]his level
Said “Son, you’re not special, you won’t f[G]ind him where you
th[Am]ink”
[Chorus]
You won’t find him down on [Dm]sunset[C]
Or at a party in the [G]hills[Am]
At the bottom of the [Dm]bottl[C]e
Or when you’re tripping on some [G]pills[Am]
When they s[Dm]old you the [C]dream you were just 16
[G]Packed a bag and ran a[Am]way
And it’s a crying [Dm]shame you came [C]all this way
‘Cause you won’t find [G]Jesus in [Am]LA
And it’s a crying [Dm]shame you came [C]all this way
‘Cause you won’t find [N.C]Jesus in LA

[Dm] [C] [G] [Am]
[Verse 2]
Took a [Dm]sip of his [C]whiskey
Said, “Now that you’re with me, well,
I [G]think that [Am]you should stay”
Yeah, I [Dm]know you’ve been busy
[C] Searching through the city
So [G]let me share the [Am]way
[Pre-Chorus]
I k[Dm]now I’m not your savior
[C] Know I’m not your truth
But I [G]think we [Am]could be friends
He said “Come [Dm]down to my [C]level, hang out with
the devil
Let me [G]tell you, in the [Am]end…”
[Chorus]
You won’t find him down on [Dm]sunset[C]
Or at a party in the [G]hills[Am]
At the bottom of the [Dm]bottl[C]e
Or when you’re tripping on some [G]pills [Am]
When they [Dm]sold you the dream you were [C]just 16
[G]Packed a bag and ran a[Am]way
And it’s a crying [Dm]shame you came [C]all this way
‘Cause you won’t find [G]Jesus in [Am]LA
And it’s a crying [Dm]shame you came [C]all this way
‘Cause you won’t find [G]Jesus in [Am]LA
[Bridge]
[C] Hmm And that is when I knew that it was time
to go hom[G]e
And that is when I realized that
I was alo[Am]ne
And all the vibe and colors from the lights fade away
[F] And I don’t care what they say [G]
[Chorus]
You won’t find him down on [Dm]sunset[C]
Or at a party in the [G]hills[Am]
At the bottom of the [Dm]bottl[C]e
Or when you’re tripping on some [G]pills [Am]
When they [Dm]sold you the dream you were [C]just 16
[G]Packed a bag and ran a[Am]way
And it’s a crying [Dm]shame you came [C]all this way
‘Cause you won’t find [N.C]Jesus in LA
[Outro]
You won’t find him down on [Dm]sunset[C]
Or at a party in the [G]hills[Am]
At the bottom of the [Dm]bottl[C]e
Or when you’re tripping on some [G]pills [Am]
When they [Dm]sold you the dream you were [C]just 16
[G]Packed a bag and ran a[Am]way
And it’s a crying [Dm]shame you came [C]all this way
‘Cause you won’t find [G]Jesus in [Am]LA
And it’s a crying [Dm]shame you came [C]all this way
‘Cause you won’t find [G]Jesus in [N.C]LA
