F                        Bb                 F       Bb 
I love to great the day, love my hideaway in Laurel Canyon 
F                           Bb                   F       Bb 
I don’t keep track of time, living on the dole in Laurel Canyon 
              C                     Bb            C   
Standing here trying to get a ride, I got my baby by my side 
Bb                  C        F 
Some say we are the pride of Laurel Canyon 
  
F                  Bb                    F       Bb 
Shades of Camelot, giving all I’ve got to Laurel Canyon 
F                         Bb                   F       Bb 
John Paul Jones and Lizzy trying to keep it in, Laurel Canyon 
                 C               Bb            C   
Up and down here take your pick, light another candlestick  
Bb                    C         F 
I don’t think I could ever keep Laurel Canyon 

Looking out my door I can see that story, Laurel Canyon 
Staying just above with the one I love, Laurel Canyon 
Our good friend Felicity, she married old man Socrates 
Standing under 'neath the trees of Laurel Canyon, strange companion 

I’ve got a dog named Gwinn wondering somewhere in Laurel Canyon 
She goes out to play, seems to know her way through Laurel Canyon 
Saw miss kitty chase a mouse living in a wooden house 
I’m sowing flowers out on my blouse, Laurel Canyon, strange companion 

Look out I’m gonna shout about good old Laurel Canyon 
Staying just above with the one I love, Laurel Canyon 
Good old, good old Laurel Canyon...
