[Verse 1]
                     Dm7                        C
Well, I shook hands with the devil down on the south side
            G                      Am7
And he bought us both a drink
           Dm7                    C
With a pad and a pencil sat by his side
          G                   Am7
I said "Tell me what you think"

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

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

[Instrumental]
Dm C G Am
Dm C G Am

[Verse 2]
            Dm7                       C
Took a sip of his whiskey, said "Now that you're with me
           G                    Am7
Well, I think that you should stay"
            Dm7                             C
Yeah, I know you've been busy     searching through the city
     G                 Am7
So let me share the way

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

[Chorus]
                                            Dm7     C
You won't find him down on Sunset
                              G       Am
Or at a party in the hills
                                 Dm7    C
At the bottom of the bottle
                                                    G     Am
Or when you're tripping on some pills
                 Dm7                       C
When they sold you the dream you were just 16
               G                 Am
Packed a bag and ran away
                           Dm7                       C
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
                                  G          Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
                           Dm                         C
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
                                  G          Am7
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA

[Bridge]
C
     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
Am
     And all the vibrant colors from the lights fade away
F                                                   G
     And I don't care what they say

[Chorus]
                                            Dm7    C
You won't find him down on Sunset
                              G      Am7
Or at a party in the hills
                                Dm7    C
At the bottom of the bottle
                                                   G       Am7
Or when you're tripping on some pills
                 Dm7                       C
When they sold you the dream you were just 16
              G                  Am7
Packed a bag and ran away
                           Dm7                       C
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
                                  N.C.
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA

[Chorus]
                                       Dm7     C
I won't find him down on Sunset
                              G       Am
Or at a party in the hills

And it's a crying shame I came all this way
                             G                  Am
'Cause I won't find Jesus in LA
                           Dm                       C
And it's a crying shame I came all this way
                             G
'Cause I won't find Jesus in LA
