[Verse 1]
[Am]If[Gsus4][G][Gsus4][G][Gsus4][G#dim][G]
you [C]have sunshine [E]an d [Am]beaches,
[C]how [F]can [F#dim]that be so hard[G]?
An[Adim]d maybe or[Ebdim]anges an d g[C]rapefr[E]uit[Am]
[Adim]grow ing[D] in your own backyard.
[G]If [Am]you h[G]ave [C]mountains, a[E]nd the[Am] ocean,
[Gm]and [C]a gr[F]eat big [F#dim]smiling sky[Am][C]
[Am]There's very [G#]little that is blue [Gsus4]here,
[Am]so the blues p[D]ass
Los
Angeles [G]by
[C]Everybody has[F] a b[G]arb[C]ecue,
[F]eve[C]rybod[F]y's goi[Gsus4]ng swimmi[C]ng too
[F]With [C]that kind of liv[Bb]ing,
how can you be [Ab]blue?
So the [D]blues pass
Los
Angeles by
[G]Oh,[Gsus4] you can [G]go to a[C]
[G]mountain and [C]ski down the [F]side
[C]Go to a [F]beach and take a [C]surfboard ride
[F]The cit[C]y of the angel[Bb]s
has [Am]a lo[F]t of[Abdim] pride
[Ab]But the [Adim]blues ha[D]ve[G]
passed it [Gsus4]by
[C]And oh, the [Am]folks are [Dm]nice [G]in
this tropic[Gm]al cli[C]me
Although they [F]talk [Dm]about the
[Ddim]weather [Bb]lot [Gm]s of the time
[C]They cal[F]l it unu[Dm]sual if [G]the rain com[Gm]es down
[C]The[Bb]y don[Am]'t believe in
[Adim]blues in this ol[D]d town
[G]You can go [C]to the des[F]ert
[Gsus4]in an hour o[C]r two
[F]Where the [C]sun and the [F]sand
are [C]so good for you
[F]Whe[C]re living's that eas[Bb]y,
how [F]can you be [Ab]blue?
[Adim]Yes, the blues hav[D]e passed it by[G]
[D][G][Gsus4][G][Gsus4][G]
[Am]Oh, [G]you can [F]live i[Dm]n the valley
[G]where the [Gm]grass is green
[C]Oh, you can liv[F]e on [Dm]a hill
[G]with a view to [Gm]be se[C]en
[Bb]The peop[Am]le do sa[Faug]y
that [G]on a real clear day
[C]You[Bb] can see
[Am]Catalina, th[E]ou[G]gh it's pret[Ab]ty far
away
[G]Oh, [F]you can [C]watch the
Rams or
[F]Angels [Gsus4]or the
[C]Dodgers play
[F]On a s[C]unny
Cali[G]fornia [C]smog -free day
[F]If the[C] boys are winnin[Bb]g,
it's [F]easier to [Ab]say that the
[D]Blues passed
Los
Angeles [G]by.
They went right on by, took a look at that sky,
[G]and[Gsus4] they pas[G]sed it by.[Eb]
