Listen to it and you'll get some timing right if something's wrong here. 
Either way, listen to it first! Always adviced ;)

VERSE 1

F6 - F
Let me tell you a little story 
F6 - F                 F - C with thumb on base string, third fret) x2
of how I got my attitude
F6 - F 
When I moved to Manhattan,
F6 - F                      F - C  x2
I hadn't even finished school
F6 - F                                   
I was working so hard just to pay 
F6 - F                   F - C  x2
those bills and stay there
F6 - F               F6 - F                 F - C  x2
I had my own agenda, no one even really cared

CHORUS

G                       Am             F        G
Time was running out, I had to make a move
G                          Am
So I picked up the bass guitar 
                   F6 - F x2
and I played it cool
                   F - C x2
Yeah I played it cool

F6 - F x2, F - C x2

VERSE 2
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/josh_rouse/hollywood_bass_player_acoustic_crd.html ]
F6 - F                    
A couple years later, 
F6 - F                    F - C x2
I'm living in Paris, France
F6 - F
Hanging out with DJs, 
F6 - F                  F - C x2
following the latest fads
F6 - F                             F6 - F                
I was working so hard just to figure out
                      F - C x2
the clothes and the hair
F6 - F
I tried so hard not to show it,
F6 - F                         F - C x2
I walked with my nose in the air

CHORUS

G                          Am
The french didn't want me around, 
                       F        G
they didn't like my groove
G                        Am
So I packed up my bass guitar 
                  F6 - F x2, F - C x2
and moved to Hollywood
F6 - F x2, F - C x2
I moved to Hollywood
F6 - F x2, F - C x2

F6 - F x2, F - C x2

BRIDGE

Em                    Am
I had one last chance
Em                   C                  F
It was all there waiting for me, honey
G                    
So Sunny Hollywood

F6 - F x2, F - C x2
