VERSE 1 Am Ab F There was no one nothing to see Am Ab F The night is useless and so are we C Bb Cause everybody knows Am Ab F G The fabric of folly is fallen apart at the seams CHORUS Am C And I've been lookin' for a good time Am Ab G But the pleasures are seldom and few VERSE 2 Am Ab F There's no whiskey there's no wine Am Ab F Just the concrete and a worried mind C Bb 'cause everybody knows Am Ab F G Death creeps in slow 'til you feel safe in his arms CHORUS Am C And I've been lookin' for a new friend Am Ab G And I don't care if he's decrepit and gray VERSE 3 Am Ab F O maria haven't you known Am Ab F Days so careless all on your own C Bb 'cause everybody knows Am Ab F G The circus is closed and the animals have gone wild CHORUS Am C And I've been lookin' for my shadow Am Ab G But this place is so bright and so clean
