(this part isnt in the acoustic  
but in the electric,  
i think it sounds fresh) 
 
lyrics 
 
sometimes i feel 
like i dont have a partner 
sometimes i feel 
like my only friend 
is the city i live in 
the city of angels 
lonely as i am 
together we cry 
 
i drive on her streets 
cuz shes my companion 
i walk through her hills 
cuz she knows who i am 
she sees my good deeds 
and she kisses me windy 
i never worry 
now that is a lie 
 
i dont ever want to feel 
like i did that day 
take me to the place i love 
take me all the way 
i dont ever want to feel 
like i did that day 
take me to the place i love 
take me all the waaaaaaaaaaaay 
 
its hard to believe 
that theres nobody out there 
its hard to believe 
that am all alone 
at least i have her love 
the city she loves me 
lonely as i am 
together we cry 
 
i dont ever want to feel 
like i did that day 
take me to the place i love 
take me all that way 
i dont ever want to feel 
like i did that day 
take me to the place i love 
take me all the waaaaaaaaaaaay 
 
under the bridge downtown 
is where i drew some blood 
under the bridge downtown 
i could not get enough 
under the bridge downtown 
forgot about my love 
under the bridge downtown 
i gave my life awaaaaaaaaaaay
