I don't want to buy it

I met an old mistake walking down the street today

I didn't want to be mean about it

But I didn't have one good word to say.

Chorus:

Big red lite on the highway,
F9                       Em       Am
Little green lite on the freeway.

Got a steady job moving items for the mob

It's a shame those boys couldn't be more copasetic


Chorus:
Am                   D   C
West L.A. fadeaway,
Am                   D   C
West L.A. fadeaway
B
Big red lite on the highway,
F9                       Em       Am
Little green lite on the freeway.


Verse:

I need a West L.A. girl, already know what I need to know

Name, address, and phone number

Lord, and just how far to go.

Verse:

West L.A. fadeaway, here's one chance you say.

She tries to live by the Golden Rule.

Said you treat other people right,
E                                               Am
Other people probably treat you cool.
