Playing The Part(Chords)

	        INTRO: A 

A                                       E 
Taking a dip on the sunset strip in the mornin' 
                                                     A 
Ain't nothing like the smell of tofu and high dollar wine 
                                                   D 
They said maybe all of them cars locking down the I-5 
       A                                                E                      A 
Yeah I find it amazing these rats I've been chasing are helping me remember a time 

 
         D                           A 
When the only LA I knew was lower Alabama 
                 E                                 A 
Back when me and Hannah were wishing on a southern star 
         D                                        A                  D 
Now its so complicated, I really hate it, why'd I ever want to go so far 
         A 
Taking depression pills in the Hollywood Hills 
E                           A 
Acting like I'm playing the part 


All this gripping and grinning, losing and winning, and running 
Promises break like an egg on the hot asphalt 
What the hell was I thinking, drinking like I'd never get caught 
These high dollar women, and the fame and the fortune, ain't worth the ticket I bought 

CHORUS 

       A 
Taking depression pills in the Hollywood Hills 
E                            A 
Acting like I'm playing the part
