Fm A#m
As I walk through the streets of my new city
D# G#
my back feeling much better, I suppose
Gm6 Fm A#m
I've reclaimed the use of my imagination
D# G#
for better or for worse, I've yet to know
Gm6 Fm A#m
but I always knew you'd be the one to understand me,
D# G# Gm6
I guess that's why it took so long to get things right.
Fm
Suddenly I'm lost
A#m
On my street
On my block
D#
Oh why, Oh why
G# C#
Oh why haven't you been there for me?
D# G# Gm6
Can't you see, I'm losing my mind this time?
Fm A#m
This time it's for real, I can see
F#* Abm* Bbm* C#m*
All the trees are turning red
F#* Abm* Bbm* C#m* F#*
The beggars near bodegas grin at me
F#* Abm* Bbm* C#m*
I think they want something
F#* Abm* Bbm* C#m* F#*
I close my eyes, I tell myself to breathe
G#
and be calm.
Be calm.
C# G#
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
Fm A#m C#
Well I know that it gets so hard sometimes.
D#
Be calm.
Fm A#m
I'm scared that everyone is out to get me.
D# G# Gm6
"These days before you speak to me you pause."
Fm A#m
"I always see you looking out your window."
D# G# Gm6
"After all, you lost your band, you left your mom."
Fm A#m
Now every single crack, every pain that I pass,
D# G# Gm6
says I should either leave or pick it up
Fm
But with every single buck I've made
A#m
I'm saddled with bad luck that came
D#
the moment I was baptized
F#*
or when I found out one day I'm gonna die
Abm* Bbm* C#* F#* Abm* C#m*
if only I could find my people or my place in life
F#* Abm* Bb* C#m*
then when they come to 'carolin'
F#* Abm* Bbm* C#m*
so loud, so bright, the theremin
F#* Abm* Bbm*
will lead us to a chorus
C#m* D#* Abm* Bbm* C#m* F#
where we'll all rejoice and sing a song that goes:
G#
Oh be calm.
Be calm.
C# G#
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
Fm A#m C#
I know that it gets so hard sometimes,
D#
Be calm.
G# Cm
Take it from me, I've been there a thousand times.
Fm
You hate your pulse because it thinks you're still alive
Fm A#m* B* A#m
and e-very--thing's wrong
C# A#m
It just gets so hard sometimes
D#
Be calm.
Fm D# Cm A#m
I don't remember much that night,
G# D# G# D# F#* Ab* B*
Just walking, thinking fondly of you
Fm D# Cm A#m G#
Thinking how the worst is yet to come
D# G# D# G#
From that street corner came a song
B* C#m* D#m* E*
And I can't remember the man,
D# G# Gm6
The panhandler or his melody.
Fm D# Cm A#m D#
The words exchanged had far exceeded any change I'd given thee.
G#
Oh be calm.
Be calm.
C# G#
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
Fm A#m C#
I know that it gets so hard sometimes,
D#
Be calm.
G# Cm
Take it from me, I've been there a thousand times.
Fm
You hate your pulse because it thinks you're still alive
Fm Gm G# A#m
and e-very--thing's wrong
C# A#m
It just gets so hard sometimes
D#
Be calm.
Fm
Be calm.
D* G*
