A D
When you're lost in the rain in Juarez
E/D D A D/A A
And it's Eastertime too
And your gravity fails
D E/D D A D/A A
And negativity don't pull you through
D
Don't put on any airs
A
When you're down on Rue Morgue Avenue
E7
They got some hungry women there
A D/A A
And they really make a mess outa you.
A
Now if you see Saint Annie
D E/D D A D/A A
Please tell her thanks a lot
I cannot move
D E/D D A D/A A
My fingers are all in a knot
D
I don't have the strength
A
To get up and take another shot
E7
And my best friend, my doctor
A D/A A
Won't even say what it is I've got.
A
Sweet Melinda
D A D/A A
The peasants call her the goddess of gloom
She speaks good English
D E/D D A D/A A
And she invites you up into her room
D
And you're so kind
A D/A A
And careful not to go to her too soon
E7
And she takes your voice
A D/A A
And leaves you howling at the moon.
A
Up on Housing Project Hill
D A
It's either fortune or fame
You must pick up one or the other
D E/D D A D/A A
Though neither of them are to be what they claim
D
If you're lookin' to get silly
A D/A A
You better go back to from where you came
E7
Because the cops don't need you
A D/A A
And man they expect the same.
A
Now all the authorities
D E/D D A D/A A
They just stand around and boast
D
How they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms
E/D D A D/A A
Into leaving his post
D
And picking up Angel who
A D/A A
Just arrived here from the coast
E7
Who looked so fine at first
A D/A A
But left looking just like a ghost.

A
I started out on burgundy
D E/D D A D/A A
But soon hit the harder stuff
D
Everybody said they'd stand behind me
E/D D A D/A A
When the game got rough
D
But the joke was on me
A D/A A
There was nobody even there to bluff
E7
I'm going back to New York City
A D/A A
I do believe I've had enough.
