Chord progression same thoughout song till end
 

One year later I left Houston with an old friend at my side 
Well he did not say much but it was a beauty of a coal black .45
And the lights of LA County, they look like diamonds in the sky
When your driving through the hours with an old friend at your side

So I drove on all the day long and I drove on through the night
and I thought of her awaiting for to be his blushing bride
And the lights of LA County they look like diamonds in the sky
As I drove in to the valley with my old friend at my side

And as she stood there at the alter all dressed in her gown of white
Lord, her face was bright as the stars a-shining, like I dreamed of all my life
And they kissed each other and they turned around and saw me standing in the aisle
               G                            Cadd9              D               G
Well I did not say much, I just stood there watching as that .45 told them goodbye


        Cadd9        G                D               G
And the lights of LA County look like diamonds in the sky
          Cadd9           G             D                  G
When your kneeling at the alter with an old friend at your side
And the lights of LA County are a mighty pretty sight
When your kneeling at the alter with an old friend at your side
