F         Fsus2     F         Csus4
She's a good girl loves her mama 
F         Fsus2     F         Csus4
Loves Jesus and America too 
She's a good girl crazy 'bout Elvis 
Loves horses and her boyfriend too 

It's a long day livin' in Reseda 
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard 
And I'm a bad boy 'cause I don't even miss her 
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart 

 F     Fsus2 F Csus4        F   Fsus2 F Csus4
And I'm free           I'm free fallin' 

Yeah I'm free free fallin' 

All the vampires walking through the valley 
Move west down Ventura Boulevard 
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows 
And the good girls are home with broken hearts 

And I'm free I'm free fallin' 
Yeah I'm free free fallin' 

I wanna glide down over Mulholland 
I wanna write her name in the sky 
I wanna free fall out into nothin' 
Gonna leave this world for a while 

And I'm free I'm free fallin' 
Yeah I'm free free fallin'
