Desperados Under The Eaves

Warren Zevon

 FBbCFF/A
 I was sitting in the Hollywood Hawaiian Hotel 
 BbCDm
I was staring in my empty coffee cup, 
 AA7DmGm
I was thinking that the gypsy wasn't lyin',  
 Fsus4FCsus4C
                                     All the salty margaritas in Los Angeles,  I'm gonna drink 'em up
 BbCBbF
And if California slides into the ocean, 
 BbAmGmF
Like the mystics and statistics say it will,
 Ddim6AmGmF
 I predict this Motel will be standing, until I pay my bill. 
 Bb-CBbAmGmCF
          But don't the sun look angry through the trees,  
 BbAmGmCDm
Don't the trees look like crucified thieves,
 DmGm7
Don't you feel like desperados under the eaves, 
 Gm7Csus4CFsus4F
 Heaven help the one who leaves.  
 GmDm
 Still waking up in the morning with shaking hands,
 FCDm
And I'm trying to find a girl who understands me, 
 AA7DmC
But except in dreams you're never really free,   
 BbAmGmCF
Don't the sun look angry at me.
 BbCFF/A
I was sitting in the Hollywood Hawaiian Hotel,  
 BbCDm
I was listening to the air conditioner hum,  It went, 
 DmF/CFBbFC
 Ummm     
Look away down, Gower avenue, look away.
