Cm Fm
As I walk through the streets of my new city
A# D#
my back feeling much better, I suppose
Dm6 Cm Fm
I've reclaimed the use of my imagination
A# D#
for better or for worse, I've yet to know
Dm6 Cm Fm
but I always knew you'd be the one to understand me,
A# D# Dm6
I guess that's why it took so long to get things right.
Cm
Suddenly I'm lost
Fm
On my street
On my block
A#
Oh why, Oh why
D# G#
Oh why haven't you been there for me?
A# D# Dm6
Can't you see, I'm losing my mind this time?
Cm Fm
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
D#
and be calm.
Be calm.
G# D#
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
Cm Fm G#
Well I know that it gets so hard sometimes.
A#
Be calm.
Cm Fm
I'm scared that everyone is out to get me.
A# D# Dm6
"These days before you speak to me you pause."
Cm Fm
"I always see you looking out your window."
A# D# Dm6
"After all, you lost your band, you left your mom."
Cm Fm
Now every single crack, every pain that I pass,
A# D# Dm6
says I should either leave or pick it up
Cm
But with every single buck I've made
Fm
I'm saddled with bad luck that came
A#
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* A#* Abm* Bbm* C#m* F#
where we'll all rejoice and sing a song that goes:
D#
Oh be calm.
Be calm.
G# D#
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
Cm Fm G#
I know that it gets so hard sometimes,
A#
Be calm.
D# Gm
Take it from me, I've been there a thousand times.
Cm
You hate your pulse because it thinks you're still alive
Cm A#m* B* Fm
and e-very--thing's wrong
G# Fm
It just gets so hard sometimes
A#
Be calm.
Cm A# Gm Fm
I don't remember much that night,
D# A# D# A# F#* Ab* B*
Just walking, thinking fondly of you
Cm A# Gm Fm D#
Thinking how the worst is yet to come
A# D# A# D#
From that street corner came a song
B* C#m* D#m* E*
And I can't remember the man,
A# D# Dm6
The panhandler or his melody.
Cm A# Gm Fm A#
The words exchanged had far exceeded any change I'd given thee.
D#
Oh be calm.
Be calm.
G# D#
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
Cm Fm G#
I know that it gets so hard sometimes,
A#
Be calm.
D# Gm
Take it from me, I've been there a thousand times.
Cm
You hate your pulse because it thinks you're still alive
Cm Dm D# Fm
and e-very--thing's wrong
G# Fm
It just gets so hard sometimes
A#
Be calm.
Cm
Be calm.
D* G*
