[Intro]
Em C G
Em C G
This pavement feels cold on my face
Em C G
And my bones have seen better days
Em C G
Be a friend, pick me up off the ground
Em C G
Nice and easy, oooh
Em C G
I got a scar, you can see it from afar
Em C G
Like cigarette burns on the top of my guitar
Em C G
If you wish me luck, don’t tell me to break a leg
Em C G
I coulda been walking on a peg
D C G
And at the end of the day I will return to the city of lakes
D C G
Where the real people roam close to where all the real waves break
Em C G
I got a girl, she got lots of style
Em C G
You can see every tooth in her mouth when she smiles
Em C G
She’s prettier than you, and you, and you
Em C G
Yeah, she’s prettier than you
Em C G
I got a dream, I hope that it comes true
Em C G
And if it don’t, don’t know what I’m gonna do
Em C G Em C G
I got a dream, I got a dream
D C G
And at the end of the day I will return to the city of lakes
D C G
Where the real people roam close to where all the real waves break
(single strum)
Em C G
I lost a friend in this past year
Em C G
I miss his guitar playing in my ear
Em C G
Be a friend, take away all my fears
Em C G Em C G Em C G
Nice and easy, nice and easy, nice and easy
Then just Em C G for the amount of time that you feel necessary!
