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