[Verse 1]
 
                          Bbm             Bbm6
I got friends in New York City
                            Gmaj7          Fm9
'Cause everyone I know left town
                              Bbm          Bbm6
That's the place your day lit dreams go
                               Gmaj7       Fm9
Where you can't see the sun go down
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                            Bbm7           Cm7
Hold your head up, you're a beacon
                            Fm9alt        F
You pull me northward in my car
                            Bbm           Bbm6
You don't have to hit the big time, baby
 
                            Gmaj7         Fm9
We know who you are

[Verse 2]
                    Bbm              Bbm6
I got friends in LA County
                               Gmaj7          Fm9
Where the hillsides shine like stars
                              Bbm          Bbm6
And the people float like gold dust
                              Gmaj7       Fm9
Through the red rope district bars
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                            Bbm7           Cm7
Hold your head up, you're a beacon
                            Fm9alt         F
You pull me westward in my car
                            Bbm            Bbm6
You don't have to hit the big time, baby
                Gmaj7          Fm9
We know who you are
                            Bbm7           Cm7
Hold your head up, you're a beacon
                            Fm9alt         F
Don't let them think you've come that far
                                Bbm            Bbm6
You were always standing in the spotlight, baby
                Gmaj7          Fm9
We know who you are

[Outro]
                            Bbm7           Cm7
It's getting cold out on that big lake
'                       Fm9alt         F
And the water's painted blue
                      Bbm              Bbm6
Don't let the skyline fool you, baby
                Gmaj7          Fm9
You know what to do
                Gmaj7          Fm9
You know what to do
                Gmaj7          Fm9
You know what to do
