[Verse]
C                  D7
Nothing is real in cardboard California
F              Am7         Em
Just waking up brings you down
C                 D7
One lousy deal is cardboard California
F                           Am7              Gm6   Am7
You just can't survive in a make-believe town

Lost in a city of little tin gods
F#m7         F                 Gm   Dm7
Cold plastic people with phony facades
Em                           A7      Em
How can you win when you look at the odds
 
[Chorus]
Dm     Em      F    Em7 Dm7 Em7 Fmaj7
You're running down a   one way street
Fmaj7        Em7 Dm7 Em7 Fmaj7
Nobody cares if  you sur vive

Am7   D   Am7     D          Am7 G Am7
Where did all the good times go

Look     around your hopes and dreams are gone
Fmaj7               G                  A7
But like a fool you still keep hanging on

You lost your shot to some younger guy
