   A#               Dm
My body is a map of L.A.
                         Gm
I stand straight like an angel, with a halo
A#                       Dm
Hangin' out the Hilton Hotel window
            Gm
Screamin', "Heyo, baby, let's go"
D#              A#       F
My chest, the Sierra Madre
D#              A#         F
My hips, every high and byway
          Cm                         F
That you trace with your fingertips like a Toyota
 Cm                     F
Run your hands over me like a Land Rover

Chorus:
        A#        F
In Arcadia, Arcadia
                    Gm
All roads that lead to you
as integral to me as arteries
 D#            A#                Cm             F
That pump the blood that flows straight to the heart of me
A#           Dm
America, America
                  Gm            F         D#       A#
I can't sleep at home tonight, send me a Hilton Hotel
      Cm           A#          F
Or a cross on the hill, I'm a lost little girl
        A#
Findin' my way to ya
     Dm
Arcadia

My body is a map of LA
And my heart is like paper, I hate you
I'm not from the land of the palms,
so I know I can't stay here
I'm not native, but
My curves, San Gabriel all day
And my lips like the fire licks the bay
If you think that you know yourself, you can come over
Lay your hands on me like you're a Land Rover

Chorus

                  Gm            F              D#         A#
They built me up three hundred feet tall just to tear me down
        D#           A#          Cm             F
So I'm leavin' with nothing but laughter, and this town
A#
Arcadia
                  Dm
Findin' my way to ya
                 Gm         F
I'm leavin' them as I was, five foot eight
 D#             A#            Cm
Western bound, plus the hate that they gave
A#           Cm              F                 A#
By the way, thanks for that, on the way, I'll pray for ya
                       Dm
But you'll need a miracle
Adim7 A#
America
