Tuning: G C E A
AI wake up and look upon your
Bpainted eyelids
The F#world is your oyster and the
tErash bags are your kids
AThe ceiling is invisible there's a
Bbird sinkin thru the sky
F#And every hour that passes is
teachin me how to cEry
DCuz it's lonely here in the Augly part of town
The Bbuildings are all vacant and
the Etelephones are down
AThere's a police siren singing like
Ba tiger with no skin
F#The sewer drain is glowing and I Edon't know what state I'm in
AAnd the river is on fire there's Bchemicals and debris
F#And all the roads are blocked off
Ethey're just too hard to see
DSo cancel my appointments and Aset up a whole new show
BCuz I'm in need of a good hot meal
Eand a life to call my own
(At this point Harmonica solo plays over chord progression A-B-F#-E)
ASo get me a plate of money get Bme a blanket and a chair
F#The limitations are limitless
Ethey're floating thru the air
DCuz it's real and it's true the Athings I see in you
BAnd there's nothin I wouldn't talk
aEbout with the clearest dream
that ever drifted byA
