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

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
