You're reaching for your four leaf clover
A#m D# A#m C# G#
But baby there ain't no luck down there
A#m G#
I swear that there's no heart in this city
A#m C# D#
It's here the slogan reads "Do your time"

everybody's doing their sentence
A#m
It's just there ain't nobody here
A#m
Who knows just what's the crime

In this city

Girl once you were young and pretty
A#m D# A#m C# G#

Just being here we're

Breathing heart attacks

D# C# A#m
You ain't one for taking chances

And surviving is living to die in
