Intro
B (play the lowest note of the chord first then strum...just listen
to the record.)
B F#
I wake up and look upon your painted eyelids
G# F#
The world is your oyster and the trash bags are your kids
B F#
The ceiling is invisible there's a bird sinkin thru the sky
G# F#
And every hour that passes is teachin me how to cry
E G B G#
Cuz it's lonely here in the ugly part of town
C# F#
The buildings are all vacant and the telephones are down
B F#
There's a police siren singing like a tiger with no skin
G# F#
The sewer drain is glowing and I don't know what state I'm in
B F#
And the river is on fire there's chemicals and debris
G# F#
And all the roads are blocked off they're just too hard to see
E G B G#
So cancel my appointments and set up a whole new show
C# F#
Cuz I'm in need of a good hot meal and a life to call my own
(At this point Harmonica solo plays over chord progression A-E-F#-E)
B F#
So get me a plate of money get me a blanket and a chair
G# F#
The limitations are limitless they're floating thru the air
E G B G#
Cuz it's real and it's true the things I see in you
C# F#
And there's nothin I wouldn't talk about with the clearest dream
B
that ever drifted by
Play B until fade out
That's it. You should get the basic idea. Just listen to the record for the
strumming pattern. Have fun.
