Neither of us understood the way things ticked in Hollywood
    G/BG/B      Am7Am7
We just loaded in and grabbed the bat
   Dm7Dm7       G7G7
With little room to swing a cat
  C/EC/E         FF      G+G
And pretty soon we were where it's at
  AbAb   Bb majorBb    CM7
Or so the papers say
  CM7              Gm/C       F/CF/C  C majorC
And all around us suntanned teens, beauty like we'd never seen
  G/BG/B       Am7Am7
Our heroes led us by the hand
    Dm7Dm7        G7G7
Through Brian Wilson's promised land
   C/EC/E       FF   G+G
Where Disney's God and he commands
   AbAb    Bb majorBb    CM7
Both mice and men to stay

In a bright red Porsche on Sunset I saw Steve Mcqueen
       Eb MajorEb       Bb/DBb/D       C majorC
I guess he's just about the coolest guy I've ever seen
    FF        D/F#D/F#      G+G         E7/G#
And for you and me that speeding car is how it's going to be

I see no brakes just open road and lots of gasoline
