[Verse 1]
G                     D          
In the City of Angels tonight   
G                    C
down off one of those freeways
G                                 
The breeze ain't movin' nothin',  
    D
   But the blue hotel light
Am                           C   
and the ladies on the corner 
                       D
swear they could make it right
       G                        
And he sits with his head in his 
  D      G                      
hands   She sits listening to the 
   C
radio
G                                  
And things--they ain't worked out  
D
exactly as planned
Am                                
But then, Southern California     
C                        D
ain't no place to make a stand...


[Refrain]
G                 D           C 
And she holds on--she holds on 
        D
to St. Christopher
G                 D        Am   
And she shines on--and he heads 
         C
for the light
D                G         
And they can't take away the 
 D            Am  C     G        D
memories of Spanish nights...

[Verse 2]
G                            D   
She had been there forever  and 
            G                   C
he had been 'somewhere along the 
way'

G                           D
They were passionate people these 
are desperate times
Am                        
Desperate measures call for 
   C|D
passionate crimes
G                             
So they stole all the love they 
        D        G                
could handle, living underneath 
        C
the hotel law
G                              
And you don't take prisoners     
   D
when you live on the run
Am                             
And this town--it can finish    
C                  D
anything you've begun...


[Refrain]
G                 D           C 
And she holds on--she holds on 
        D
to St. Christopher
G                 D        Am   
And she shines on--and he heads 
         C
for the light
D                G         
And they can't take away the 
 D            Am  C     G        D
memories of Spanish nights...

D                      G         
When you run with the dreamers 
C      D
(when you  run with the dreamers)
D                      G         
 The going can get so rough      
      C      D
    (get so rough)
D             G               Em
And sooner or later you find out
              C        
 that dreams just ain't 
            D
enough...(just ain't enough)


[Verse 3]
G                                 
And they swore that each time was 
    D         G                   
the last one You know, two hearts 
           C
can only take so

much...
G                              
And you can't live in love songs 
       D
but, oh, how they tried
Am                    C     
Alone in the darkness with the 
                  D
whispers and cries
            G                 
But then... In the City of the 
           D
Angels tonight...
G                        C

G                                
the breeze ain't movin' nothin'  
D                   Am
