E In a matter of time D There'll be a friend of mine Bm Gonna come to the coast A You're gonna see him E Up close for a minute or two D G While the ground cracks under you. E By the look in your eyes D You'd think that it was a surprise Bm But you seem to forget A Something somebody said E About the bubbles in the sea D G And an ocean full of trees Chorus: Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 And you now, L.A., Uptight Cmaj7 Fmaj7 City in the smog, city in the smog Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Don't you wish that you could be here too? Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Don't you wish that you could be here too? Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Don't you wish that you could be here too? Well, it's hard to believe so you get up to leave And you laugh at the door that you heard it all before Oh it's so good to know That it's all just a show for you But when the suppers are planned And the freeways are crammed And the mountains erupt And the valley is sucked Into cracks in the earth Will I finally be heard by you Chorus: L.A. uptight City in the smog, city in the smog Don't you wish that you could be here too? Don't you wish that you could be here too? Don't you wish that you could be here too? | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA Cm Cmaj7 Cmaj D E Fm Fmaj7 Fmaj G Bm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
