Em C/G G
Em C/G G
Em C/G G
This pavement feels cold on my face
Em C/G G
And my bones have seen better days
Em C/G G
Be a friend, pick me up off the ground
Em C/G G
Nice and easy, oooh
Em C/G G
I got a scar, you can see it from afar
Em C/G G
Like cigarette burns on the top of my guitar
Em C/G G
If you wish me luck, don''t tell me to break a leg
Em C/G 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 G
I got a girl, she got lots of style
Em C/G G
You can see every tooth in her mouth when she smiles
Em C/G G
She''s prettier than you, and you, and you
Em C/G G
Yeah, she''s prettier than you
Em C/G G
I got a dream, I hope that it comes true
Em C/G G
And if it don''t, don''t know what I''m gonna do
Em C/G G Em C/G 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
Em C/G G
I lost a friend in this past year
Em C/G G
I miss his guitar playing in my ear
Em C/G G
Be a friend, take away all my fears
Em C/G G Em C/G G Em C/G G
Nice and easy, nice and easy, nice and easy
Em C/G G Em C/G G (repeat to end)
Em C/G G D C
