CAPO III
[Intro]
Bm Bmaug
Bm6 Bmaug Bm
Dm Dmaug
Dm6 Dmaug Dm
[Verse 1]
Dm Bb
Sure,I came out here to make my name
C
Wanted my pool, my dose of fame
F A7
Wanted my parking space at Warner's
Dm Bb
But after a year, a one room hell
C
A murphy bed, a rancid smell
Dm
Wallpaper peeling at the corners
[Chorus]
Dm C
Sunset Boulevard, twisting boulevard
G/B Gm Dm
Secretive and rich, a little scary
Dm C
Sunset Boulevard, tempting boulevard
G/B Gm Dm
Waiting there to swallow the unwary
[Verse 2]
Dm Bb
Dreams are not enough to win a war
C
Out here they're always keeping score
F A7
Beneath the tan the battle rages
Dm Bb
Smile a rented smile, fill someone's glass
C
Kiss someone's wife, kiss someone's ass
Dm
We do whatever pays the wages
[Chorus]
Dm C
Sunset Boulevard, headline boulevard
G/B Gm Dm
Getting there is only the beginning
Dm C
Sunset Boulevard, jackpot boulevard
G/B Gm Dm
Once you've won you have to go on winning
[Bridge]
Bb
You think I've sold out? Dead right I've sold out!
G
I’ve just been waiting for the right offer
Dm
Comfortable quarters, regular rations
Bb Dm
24-hour, Five Star room service
Bb
And if I'm honest, I like the lady
G
I can't help being touched by her folly
Dm
I'm treading water, taking the money
Bb Dm A7
Watching her sun set... Well, I'm a writer!
[Verse 3]
Dm Bb
L.A.'s changed a lot over the years
C
Since those brave gold rush pioneers
F A7
Came in their creaky covered wagons
Dm Bb
Far as they could go, end of the line
C
Their dreams were yours, their dreams were mine
Dm
But in those dreams were hidden dragons
[Chorus]
Dm C
Sunset Boulevard, frenzied boulevard
G/B Gm Dm
Swamped with every kind of false emotion
Dm C
Sunset Boulevard, brutal boulevard
G/B Gm Dm
Just like you, we'll wind up in the ocean
[Verse 4]
Ebm Cb
She was sinking fast, I threw a rope
Db
Now I have suits and she has hope
Gb Bb7
It seemed an elegant solution
Ebm Cb
One day this must end, it isn't real
Db
Still I'll enjoy a hearty meal
Ebm
Before tomorrrow's execution
[Chorus]
Ebm Db
Sunset Boulevard, ruthless boulevard
Ab/C Abm Ebm
Destination for the stony-hearted
Ebm Db
Sunset Boulevard, lethal boulevard
Ab/C Abm Ebm
Everyone's forgotten how they started
B Db Ebm
Here on Sunset Boulevard...!
