G                     D
Hopped of the plane at LAX
Em
With a dream and my cardigan
G                      D
Welcome to the land of fame excess
Em
Wow, am I gonna fit in?

G                     D
Jump in the cab, here I am for the first time

Turn to my right and I see the Hollywood sign

This is oh so crazy, everybody seems so famous

G                     D
My tummy's turning and I'm feeling kinda homesick
Em
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
G                           D
That's when the taxi man turns on the radio
Em
And the Jay-Z song was on
Em

Nodding my head like yeah

Like “whos that chick, thats rockin’ kicks?

So hard with my girls not around me
