[Verse]
F#
Down the street with the Kosher shops
B G#
Past the rummage yards with the antique props
F#
Beauty queens and homesick harlots
B G#
All line up in the LA gauntlet
F#
It's the corner where dreams are made
B G#
Where flaws are fixed up with pills and powder
F#
The beginning of success and failure
B G# F#
At 200 South La Brea
F#
Changed her name and headed to the city
B G#
Took out that loan and bought herself a Mini
F#
Recites lines at the grocery store and then
B G#
Quotes old movies at table 4
F#
They say: "Can you sing?" and "Can you cry?" and
B G#
"Will you take off your top if the price is right?"
F#
"Do you smoke?" and "Do you drink?"
B G#
And "Do you wash your spoons in the bathroom sink?"
F#
These are questions
B G#
At 200 South La Brea
F#
Obsessions
B G#
At 200 South La Brea
