Hollywood Seven by Jon English

Chords with lyrics

Em:She came in one night from Omaha, worn C:out
'cause she never could sleep on Em:trains.
Took the bus to Hollywood, lookin' C:for a room in the pourin' Em:rain.
With F:hair so blond and eyes so brown, she Dm:thought she'd take
this town and turn it Bsus4:upside down. B:

Em:I was livin' in a hotel just off C:Sunset,
she moved in across the Em:hall. She said she'd be a movie star
and waited C:every mornin' for a Em:call.
So I F:asked her in, just to have a little drink
but she Dm: hardly had the time. Her Bsus4:call might come tomorrow,
she's got to learn her B:lines.

On Em:Hollywood Seven, G:rooms to rent,
till your A:name goes up in Em:lights.
C:Hollywood Seven you can dream your dreams
for Bsus4:seven B:bucks a Em:night.

Em:Now the months went by without a job,
the C:money that she saved was nearly Em:spent.
So she started bringing strangers home
just C:tryin' to find a way to pay the Em:rent.
She'd F:sit down and drink my coffee, got Dm:nothin' much to say,
just Bsus4:busy rehearsin' in her mind, the scene she'd never B:play

On Em:Hollywood Seven, G:rooms to rent,
till your A:name goes up in Em:lights.
C:Hollywood Seven you can dream your dreams
for Bsus4:seven B:bucks a Em:night.

Gm:I found her there one mornin' when she didn't
Eb:come for coffee when I Gm:called.
Gm:She'd gone and brought the wrong one home this time,
there were Eb:crazy lipstick marks all o'er the Gm:walls.
Now she's Ab:goin' back to Omaha but Fm:not the way she planned,
there will Dsus4:be no crowd to cheer her on, no welcome home, no D:band.

On Gm:Hollywood Seven, Bb:rooms to rent,
till your C:name goes up in Gm:lights.
Eb:Hollywood Seven you can dream your dreams
for Dsus4:seven D:bucks a Gm:night.

Gm:She came in one night from Syracuse,
Eb:tired from sleeping on the Gm:plane.
Gm:Took a cab to Hollywood, dreaming Eb:of the lights
that would spell her Gm:name.
So Ab:much to take a lease out on the empty Fm:room across the hall
wakin' Dsus4:up every mornin', waiting for that D:call.

Gm:Hollywood Seven, Bb:rooms to rent,
till your C:name goes up in Gm:lights.
Eb:Hollywood Seven you can dream your dreams
for Dsus4:seven D:bucks a Gm:night.

Bbm:Hollywood Seven, C#:rooms to rent,
till your Eb:name goes up in Bbm:lights.
F#: Hollywood Seven you can pay your dues
for Fsus4:seven F:bucks a Bbm:night.
