Picture Postcards From La

Joshua Kadison
 DGDG
 I'm the piano player down at Eddie's bar
 DGDG
and Rachel, she's the waitress who wants to be a star.
 CGCG
She swears she's gonna make it, make it big someday
 CA7DGDG
and she'll send me picture postcards from LA               

When it's time for closing I play while Rachel sings
She listens to my music, I listen to her dreams
She swears she's gonna make it, she's goin' all the way,
and I say, "Send me picture postcards from LA."

 EmBmGD
Send me postcards from LA signed with love forevermore.
 EmBmG
Picture postcards from LA to hang on my refrigerator door.
 EmF#mGA7DGDG
 Rachel, if you find me one I'd love a picture of the California sun.            

When Rachel shares my pillow she always asks me things
like do I really think she's pretty, do I like the way she sings?
I don't know how to answer, so I always smile and say,
I say, "Send me picture postcards from LA."

(CHORUS)

Bridge:
 BbCFBb
 Sometimes Rachel stands up in the middle of the bar
 CF
and does a scene from the late show.
 BbCFBb
 We all clap our hands as she puts her apron on
 CDGDG
and says, "Next week, I'm gonna go!"                     

She'll even buy a ticket and pack her things to leave.
Though we all know the story we pretend that we believe
But something always comes up, something always makes her stay.
And still no picture postcards from LA.

(CHORUS)

I'm the piano player down at Eddie's bar
and Rachel, she's the waitress who wants to be a star.
