Verse 1

        G
I woke up again this morning with the sun in my eyes
      Cmaj7
When Mike came over with a script surprise
  G
A mafioso story with a twist
  Cmaj7
A To Wong Fu-Julie Newmar Hitch
         G                                              Cmaj7
Get your ass out of bed, he said I'll explain it on the way

Chorus 1

           G                   Cmaj7
But we did nothing, absolutely nothing that day
           Bm7                      Cmaj7                      Bm7   Cmaj7
And I say, what the hell am I doing drinking in L.A. at twenty-six?
          Bm7                        Cmaj7                                 Bm7
I got the fever for the flavour, the payback will be later, still I need a fix

Verse 2

        G
And the girls on the bus kept on laughing at us
      Cmaj7
As we rode on the 10 down to Venice again
G                                           Cmaj7
Blaring out the g-funk sipping on juice and gin, just me and friend
G                                         Cmaj7
Feeling kind of groovy, workin' on a movie (yeah right)

Chorus 2

           G                   Cmaj7
But we did nothing, absolutely bupkis that day
              Bm7                      Cmaj7                      Bm7
And I'll say, what the hell am I doing drinking in L.A. at twenty-six?
                                 Cmaj7
(With my mind on my money and my money on my beer)
            Bm7                                Cmaj7                Bm7
I know that life is for the taking so I better wise up and take it quick (one more time at Trader Vic's)

Verse 3

     G
Some men there wanted to hurt us
          Cmaj7
And other men said we weren't worth the fuss
          G
You could see 'em all bitching by the bar
          Cmaj7
About the fine line between the rich and the poor
G                                                           Cmaj7
  Then Mike turned to me and said, what you think we got it done son?

Chorus 3

              G                          Cmaj7
We found a conclusion and I guess that's something
              Bm7                      Cmaj7                      Bm7   Cmaj7
So I ask you, what the hell am I doing drinking in L.A. at twenty-six?
          Bm7                       Bm7                                   Bm7
I got the fever for the nectar, the payback will be later, still I need a fix

G               Cmaj7
Hell-A, hell-A, hell-hell-A, hell-A
G               Cmaj7
Hell-A, hell-A, hell-hell-A
              Bm7                      Cmaj7                      Bm7
So I ask you, what the hell am I doing drinking in L.A. at twenty-six?
