Verse:
D#
As I walk through the valley
B F#
of the shadow of LA
D#
The footsteps that were next to me
B F#
have gone their separate ways
D#
I've seen enough now
to know that beautiful things
B F#
don't always stay that way
D#
I've done enough now
to know this beautiful place

isn't everything they say
Pre-Chorus:
F# G#
I heard that evil comes disguised
F#
Like a city of angels
G#
I'm walking towards the light
Chorus:
D# B
Baptized in the river
F#
I've seen a vision of my life
G#
And I wanna be delivered
D# B
In the city was a sinner
F#
I've done a lot of things wrong
G#
But I swear I'm a believer
D#
Like the prodigal son

I was out on my own
F# D#
Now I'm trying to find my way back home
D# B
Baptized in the river
F#
I'm delivered
G#
I'm delivered
[M.Shadows:]
D#
You're from a small town
You're gonna grow up fast
B F#
underneath these lights
D#
Down in Hollywood
B F#
on the boulevard the dead come back to life
D#
To the praying Mother
And the worried Father
B F#
Let your children go
D#
If they come back
They'll come home stronger
B F# D#
And if they don't you'll know

They say that evil comes disguised
F#
Like a city of angels

I'm walking towards the light
