Artist: Butch Walker Song: "When Canyons Ruled The City" Album: "The Rise And Fall Of Butch Walker And The Let's-Go-Out-Tonites" Okay, my first one was wrong. Here's a much better one. I haven't notated the strumming patterns, I'm sure you can figure them out on your own. Capo on 4th fret (3rd fret live) Intro (after bass): D A E x2 Verse: E Laurel was a girl I knew, made of dirt and stone F#m Pretty hip in younger years, but now she sits alone A With a hundred thousand architectural disasters that E She calls homes E Beverly Glen was pretty, all the rich boys loved her curves F#m She tried to get the credit, sometimes more than she deserved A Like those cheesy 80's movies, epitomizing all things E We'd come to know Chorus: D A E x2 Verse 2: E Beachwood was a boheme from the sexy 60's scene F#m Grew up east of west Hollywood and somewhere in between A All the madness Laurel puts up with, E But somehow always tolerates a scene E Nicols, he had a way with the performing arts F#m A&R guys having cookouts on his back with super stars A But he had some nasty habits and some potholes to E Cover up this drama queen Chorus: D A E x2 Verse 3: E Sometimes Beachwood yelled at Laurel over terms of selling out F#m Then Laurel yelled at Beverly for not knowing what life's about A With her trust fund friends and family, it felt like an earthquake E When she'd shout E And Silverlake just stood there, with her nose up in the air F#m Pushing up her horn rimmed glasses saying, A "I don't fucking care about the madness all you idiots are buying, E Selling and leasing up there" Chorus: D A E x2 E San Fernando was a struggling actor who drove a deli truck F#m On the sets of porno movies, he was just trying to make a buck A While his pilot was in escrow, he dreamed of E Dating Beverly one day Chorus: D A E x12
