C                      D
We made love in every room
                          Em
We would stay in bed for hours
C                             D
I would wear your favourite shirt
                     Em
'Cause it smelt like you
C                         D
You would write me litte notes
                           Em    D
Leave them on the kitchen counter
       C
Now I read them in a dark
      D                     Em
Dark room when I'm feeling super blue

    D
I think about you every day
   Em
It cuts me like a knife
   D
I see your ghost on roads
             A
We used to drive

Chorus:
      C       D              Em
So I left my love in Laurel Canyon
                C
'Cause there's nothing
 D              Em
Left of me and you
           C          D
I used to love those hills
         Em       D
Now the house we built is
               C     D
Just an empty mansion
           Em
In Laurel Canyon
                    C     D
It's just an empty mansion
           Em
In Laurel Canyon

Used to talk of having kids over
breakfast on a Sunday
You would tell me all your dreams
for a wedding in the spring, oh
I know I'm gonna find all of that
with someone else one day
And when I do, I won't have to prove
I love 'em with a ring

I think about you every day,
it cuts me like a knife
I see your ghost on roads we used to drive

Chorus:
So I left my love in Laurel Canyon
'Cause there's nothing left of me and you
I used to love those hills
Now the house we built is
just an empty mansion in Laurel Canyon
It's just an empty mansion, oh

A         Em                   A
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) I've gotta get away
          Em                     A
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) The ocean and the waves
          Em                   A
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) I've gotta get away
(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

Chorus:
So I left my love in Laurel Canyon
'Cause there's nothing left of me and you
I used to love those hills
Now the house we built is just an
empty mansion in Laurel Canyon
It breaks my heart to mention Laurel Canyon
It's just an empty mansion in Laurel Canyon
