Artist: Bowling For Soup
[VERSE]
Well I l[D]ove New York like e[B]veryone
And I [E]go to Las Vegas to [A]Chill
I like [D]Denver Colorado cause it's[B] so laid back
And C[E]hicago keeps it r[A]eal
I only l[D]eave Dallas when I have t[B]o, but
When I [E]do I like Tulsa, [A]OK
[CHORUS]
And I a[D]in't got not[C#]hing against[B] California[A]
But[G] I can't[A] stand L[D]A
[VERSE 2]
Well [D]Orlando Florida is humid[B] but it's swell
Austin and [E]Nashville both freakin' [A]rock (yes they do!)
And N[D]ew Orleans is evil but it's p[B]art of the appeal
You can ga[E]mble drink and swear until you [A]drop
The st[D]ate of Ohio's been gr[B]eat to our band
Along with P[E]hili and Green B[A]ay
[CHORUS]
I got[D] nothing [C#]but love fo[B]r Hollywo[A]od
But[G] I can't[A] stand L[D]A
[VERSE 3]
I like Sa[D]lt Lake City, Portland, Fri[B]sco, Santa Fe
Indi[E]anappolis and Hartford, [A]too
Bois[D]e, Memphis, Souix Falls, and[B] of course KC
Alon[E]g with Pittsburg and Kala[A]mazoo
Atla[D]nta is our home a[B]way from home and here's a s[E]hout out to Sau[A]get
Please take a moment and explain what sauget is, oh yeah, it's Saint Louis.
[CHORUS]
And I[D] wish my [C#]friends would l[B]eave that plac[A]e
'Cau[G]se I can't[A] stand L[D]A
[BRIDGE]
[F#m]Traffic Sucks
[B]No protected lefts
[F#m]Snooty fucks
[B]Pollution fills the air
[F#m]Gang Fights
[B]$7 beers
And the th[E]reat of breaking o[D]ff into the [C#]sea
(And now to give LA the benefit of the doubt)
[E]Jimmy Kimmel In and Out and g[C#]reat sushi
And d[F#m]iversity every[B]where
[E]Really hot chicks wearing ne[C#]xt to nothing
And t[F#m]he Santa Monic[B]a Pier
Thank you f[E]or hair metal and the 8[C#]4 olympics
and f[F#m]or the BFS radio p[B]lay
[CHORUS]
But ple[E]ase don't [D#]take this [C#]personal[B]ly
No I'm h[E]appy to v[D#]isit, but I'm h[C#]appier to le[B]ave
And I gu[E]ess what [D#]it is I'm tr[C#]ying to say i[B]s
[E]I can't s[F#m]tand L[E]A!
