Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]She[C] le[G]ft [C]Dallas for C[G]alifornia[C]
With an [G]old friend by her [C]side
Well he did not [G]say much
But one year [C]later
He'd ask [G]her to [C]be his wife

[Verse 2]
And [G]the lights of L.A. [C]County
Look like [G]diamonds in [C]the sky
When you're [G]driving through the [C]hours
With an [G]old friend at [C]your side

[Verse 3]
One year [G]later I left [C]Houston
With an [G]old friend [C]by my side
Well it did not [G]say much
But it was a [C]beauty
Of [G]a coal [C]black .45

[Verse 4]
[G]And the lights of L.A. [C]County
Look like [G]diamonds in [C]the sky
When you're [G]driving through the [C]hours
With an [G]old friend at [C]your side

[Verse 5]
So I [G]drove on all [C]the day long
And I [G]drove on through [C]the night
And I [G]thought of [C]her a'waiting
[G]For to be his blush[C]ing bride

[Verse 6]
And [G]the lights of L.A. [C]County
They looked like [G]diamonds in [C]the sky
As I [G]drove into [C]the valley
With my [G]old friend at [C]my side

[Verse 7]
And as she stood [G]there at the al[C]tar
[G]All dressed in her gown of [C]white
[G]Her face was bright as sta[C]rs a'shining
Like [G]I'd dreamed of all [C]my life

[Verse 8]
And they kissed each [G]other
And they turned [C]around
And they saw [G]me standing in the [C]aisle
Well I did not [G]say much
I just stood there [C]watching
[D]As that .45 told them [G]goodbye

[Verse 9]
And [C]the lights of L.A. [G]County
Look like [D]diamonds in [G]the sky
When you're [C]kneeling at the [G]altar
With an [D]old friend at [G]your side

[Verse 10]
And [C]the lights of L.A. [G]County
Are a [D]mighty [G]pretty sight
When you're [C]kneeling at the [G]altar
With an [D]old friend at [G]your side
