Verse 1
E5
A train sounds off with whistle blowing
G#5
Lighthouse horn sounds early warning
A5
Clean cool air with stars out shining
F#5
Overcoat and whiskey drinking
E5
Hands locked tight and close together
     G#5
These nights are bliss in drunken leisure
  A5
Spitting air in gusts as it gets cooler
F#5
Sparse clouds try to come together

Verse 2
E5
The cars thin out on empty streets
    G#5
No traffic jams to make you weak
    A5
Shopkeepers leave, at home they speak
   F#5
Of good patrons and of cash and thieves
E5
The wind is gaining ground on you
  G#5
The air turns damp with seaside dew
  A5
But it don't lie, it tells the truth
 F#5
And all is well and all is new

Verse 3
E5
Your west side is a teenage waiting
  G#5
Los Angeles a childhood haze
     A5
Like steps to nowhere you sit there gazing
 F#5
At friends you've lost through years of forgetting
E5
Time sells you short of all you're wanting
     G#5
Though you don't know just what you're seeking
  A5
Except winter nights and cigarettes
   F#5
And boozing with the best of them
