In this sleazy little town

'Cause it don't mean nothing
                    Bb
The words that they say
                   F
No, it don't mean nothing

These games that people play

Till you sign it on the dotted line

Whoa yeah

It's never what

But who it is you know

So easy to get stuck,

In all that California snow
Am                                  Gm
Take a good look around and you'll find

People trying to mess with your mind

The producer says
                         Bb
Let me change a line or two

And a little bit of something

Can look awfully good to you

And you wanna scream

But you gotta keep it all inside

When you're trying to make a living

There ain't no such thing as pride

Am                       G
Lots of promises in the dark

Don't you open your heart
