Piano Intro: C5  C5  C5  C5  x4

C5       C5  C5 C5 C5      C5     C5 C5
I'm the piano player down at Eddie's bar 
    C5   C5          C5  C5    C5        C5  C5 C5
and Rachel she's the waitress who wants to be a star 
    Bb5                         F5
she swears she's gonna make it make it big some day 
           F5           C5          C5 C5 C5 C5
and she'll send me picture postcards from L.A.

Chorus:
When it's time for closing I play while Rachel cleans 
she listens to my music I listen to her dreams 
she swears she's gonna make it she's going all the way 
and I say "Send me picture postcards from L.A."

        A5                               F5
Send me postcards from L.A. signed with love forever more 
        A5                                 F5
picture postcards from L.A. to hang on my refridgerator door
D5          E5            F5                 G5 
Rachel if you find me one I'd love a picture of the California

sun

When Rachel shares my pillow she always asks me things 
like do I really think she's pretty do I like the way she sings 
I don't know how to answer so I always smile and say 
I say "Send me picture postcards from L.A."

Chorus

Ab5        Bb5                      Eb5            Ab5
Sometimes Rachel stands up in the middle of the bar
           Bb5                     Eb5 
and does a scene from the late show 
Ab5              Bb5           Eb5               Ab5
we all clap our hands as she puts her apron on 
          Bb5                  C5 C5 C5 C5
and says "Next week I'm gonna go"

She'll even buy a ticket and pack her things to leave 
though we all know the story we pretend that we believe 
but something always comes up something always makes her stay 
and still no picture postcards from L.A.

Chorus

I'm the piano player down in Eddie's bar 
and Rachel she's the waitress who wants to be a star
