Ebm G#m C#
Ebm G#m
As I walk through the streets of my new city
C# F#
my back feeling much better, I suppose
Fm6 Ebm G#m
I've reclaimed the use of my imagination
C# F#
for better or for worse, I've yet to know
Fm6 Ebm G#m
but I always knew you'd be the one to understand me,
C# F# Fm6
I guess that's why it took so long to get things right.
Ebm
Suddenly I'm lost
G#m
On my street
On my block
C#
Oh why, Oh why
F# B
Oh why haven't you been there for me?
C# F# Fm6
Can't you see, I'm losing my mind this time?
Ebm G#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
F#
and be calm.
Be calm.
B F#
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
Ebm G#m B
Well I know that it gets so hard sometimes.
C#
Be calm.
Ebm G#m
I'm scared that everyone is out to get me.
C# F# Fm6
"These days before you speak to me you pause."
Ebm G#m
"I always see you looking out your window."
C# F# Fm6
"After all, you lost your band, you left your mom."
Ebm G#m
Now every single crack, every pain that I pass,
C# F# Fm6
says I should either leave or pick it up
Ebm
But with every single buck I've made
G#m
I'm saddled with bad luck that came
C#
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* C#* Abm* Bbm* C#m* F#
where we'll all rejoice and sing a song that goes:
F#
Oh be calm.
Be calm.
B F#
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
Ebm G#m B
I know that it gets so hard sometimes,
C#
Be calm.
F# A#m
Take it from me, I've been there a thousand times.
Ebm
You hate your pulse because it thinks you're still alive
Ebm A#m* B* G#m
and e-very--thing's wrong
B G#m
It just gets so hard sometimes
C#
Be calm.
Ebm C# A#m G#m
I don't remember much that night,
F# C# F# C# F#* Ab* B*
Just walking, thinking fondly of you
Ebm C# A#m G#m F#
Thinking how the worst is yet to come
C# F# C# F#
From that street corner came a song
B* C#m* D#m* E*
And I can't remember the man,
C# F# Fm6
The panhandler or his melody.
Ebm C# A#m G#m C#
The words exchanged had far exceeded any change I'd given thee.
F#
Oh be calm.
Be calm.
B F#
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
Ebm G#m B
I know that it gets so hard sometimes,
C#
Be calm.
F# A#m
Take it from me, I've been there a thousand times.
Ebm
You hate your pulse because it thinks you're still alive
Ebm Fm F# G#m
and e-very--thing's wrong
B G#m
It just gets so hard sometimes
C#
Be calm.
Ebm
Be calm.
