Intro:

A amaj9 d a asus2 amaj9

A amaj9asus4 a asus2 a

A f#m d a

I live near hollywood out in the canyon

D a d e

Its a good life if youre winnin its a killer if youre not

A f#m d a

My wife up and left last night, couldnt stand another fight

D a d e

The studio boss fired me, my futures been shot by

Chorus:

A f#m e

The three martini lunch

D a d e

Things will get better soon, I gotta hunch

A f#m e d a

The three martini lunch, wasting another afternoon

D e a (then riff as in intro)

Punching a hole in my life

A f#m d a

I came from the backwoods my prospects seemed real good

D a d e

For actor or director the future looked bright

A f#m d a

But I ran in with a bad crowd and since then its just been down

D a d e

Alone in the canyon my only companion

Chorus

A f#m d a

I know what theyre saying yeah Ill never get back again

D a d e

I pushed my luck this time and Im on the skids

A f#m d a

But I know what Im doing I just cant stop doing it

D a d e

Me and my companion, hell bent to ruin it

Chorus

Coda

D a

Wasting another afternoon

D e af#me

Punching a hole in my li............fe

D a

Wasting another afternoon

D e a

Punching a hole in my life
