Fsus2 Csus2 C C/F C/Em C/F
and she'll send me picture postcards from L.A.

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 L.A."
Chorus
Ab Bb Eb Ab
Sometimes Rachel stands up in the middle of the bar
Bb Eb
and does a scene from the late show
Ab Bb Eb Ab
we all clap our hands as she puts her apron on
Bb C C/F C/Em C/F
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 L.A.
Chorus
I'm the piano player down in Eddie's bar
and Rachel she's the waitress who wants to be a star
