E                  
I was shooting in the back of the car
         G5      D5             A5     D5    (G5)
When the windows smashed on the police cars
E
I was swimming through the streets of New York
        G5      D5         A5         D5  (A5)
With my cocaine dagger and throats to cut


[Chorus]
C          D          G
And it was making her cry...
C                            E
But it was making me high


[Verse2]
She was a hooker at the age of sixteen
All she wanted was the money, she didn't need an I.D.
She was a junkie, and I know it's cliche
But then so was her life, I mean, she lived in L.A.
[Chorus2]
And it was making her cry...
But it was making her high

Riot in my skull
The demons are coming
Los Angeles is dead
These drugs ain't working
Painted it all black
The chains are jerking
Los Angeles is dead
The drugs ain't working
Riot in my skull
The demons are coming
Los Angeles is dead
The drugs ain't working
Los Angeles is dead
The drugs ain't working
Los Angeles is dead
