[Verse 1]
Em C Em
She came in one night from Omaha, worn out cause she never could sleep on trains.
C Em
Took the bus to Hollywood, lookin' for a room in the pourin' rain.
F Dm
With hair so blond and eyes so brown, she thought she'd take
Bsus2 B
this town and turn it upside down.
[Verse 2]
Em C Em
I was livin' in a hotel just off Sunset, she moved in across the hall.
C Em
She said she'd be a movie star and waited every mornin' for a call.
F Dm
So I asked her in just to have a little drink but she hardly had the time.
Bsus2 B
Her call might come tomorrow, she's got to learn her lines.
[Chorus]
Em G A Em
On Hollywood Seven, rooms to rent 'til your name goes up in lights.
C Bsus2 B Em
Hollywood Seven you can dream your dreams for seven bucks a night.
[Verse 3]
Em C Em
Now the months went by without a job, the money that she saved was nearly spent.
C Em
So she started bringing strangers home just tryin' to find a way to pay the rent.
F Dm
She'd sit down and drink my coffee, got nothin' much to say.
Bsus2 B
Just busy rehearsin' in her mind, the scene she'd never play.
[Chorus]
Em G A Em
On Hollywood Seven, rooms to rent 'til your name goes up in lights.

Hollywood Seven you can dream your dreams for seven bucks a night.

I found her there one mornin' when she didn't come for coffee when I called.

there were crazy lipstick marks all o'er the walls.
Ab Fm
Now she's goin' back to Omaha but not the way she planned,

there will be no crowd to cheer her on, no welcome home, no band.
