Jesus In La Chords

(ver. 1)
Alec Benjamin
[Verse 1]
               Dm
Well, I shook hands with the devil
 Am
Down on the south side
        G                Am
And he bought us both a drink
        Dm               Am
With a pad and a pencil sat by his side
         G                 Am
I said "Tell me what you think"


[Pre-Chorus]
             Dm                Am
I've been looking for my savior, looking for my truth
   G         Am
I even asked my shrink
               Dm
He brought me down to his level
 Am                                       G                   Am
Said "Son, you're not special, you won't find him where you think"


[Chorus]
                                  Dm Am
You won't find him down on sunset
                           G Am
Or at a party in the hills
                            Dm Am
At the bottom of the bottle
                                      G Am
Or when you're tripping on some pills
           Dm                 Am
When they sold you the dream you were just 16
          G           Am
Packed a bag and ran away
                   Dm                 Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
                        G      Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
                   Dm                 Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
                        G      Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA


[Instrumental]
Dm Am G Am
Dm Am G Am


[Verse 2]
        Dm
Took a sip of his whiskey
 Am                                       G               Am
Said, "Now that you're with me, well, I think that you should stay"
         Dm
Yeah, I know you've been busy
Am
  Searching through the city
    G            Am
So let me share the way


[Pre-Chorus]
   Dm
I know I'm not your savior
Am
  Know I'm not your truth
        G            Am
But I think we could be friends
               Dm                Am
He said "Come down to my level, hang out with the devil
         G           Am
Let me tell you, in the end..."


[Chorus]
                                  Dm Am
You won't find him down on sunset
                           G Am
Or at a party in the hills
                            Dm Am
At the bottom of the bottle
                                      G Am
Or when you're tripping on some pills
           Dm                 Am
When they sold you the dream you were just 16
          G           Am
Packed a bag and ran away
                   Dm                 Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
                        G      Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
                   Dm                 Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
                        G      Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA


[Bridge]
Am
   And that is when I knew that it was time to go home
G
   And that is when I realized that I was alone
Am
   And all the vibe and colors from the lights fade away
Dm                               Am
   And I don't care what they say


[Chorus] (One Strum)
                                  Dm Am
You won't find him down on sunset
                           G Am
Or at a party in the hills
                            Dm Am
At the bottom of the bottle
                                      G Am
Or when you're tripping on some pills
           Dm                 Am
When they sold you the dream you were just 16
          G           Am
Packed a bag and ran away
                   Dm                 Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
                        G      Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
                   Dm                 Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
                        G      Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA


[Outro]
                                Dm Am
I won't find him down on sunset
                           G Am
Or at a party in the hills
                            Dm Am
At the bottom of the bottle
                                   G Am
Or when I'm tripping on some pills
           Dm               Am
When they sold me the dream I was just 16
           G           Am
Packed my bag and ran away
                    Dm              Am
And it's a crying shame I came all this way
                      G       Am
'Cause I won't find Jesus in LA

(One Strum)
                   Dm               Am
And it's a crying shame I came all this way
                      G      Am
'Cause I won't find Jesus in LA
