[Intro]
A A A A A
A D E A D E
[Verse 1]
A
Caught the twelve thirty from Ashmont Station
D E
32 ounces with the rum mixed in
A
God knows I need it with the way I've been living
D E
Self medicated, chemical salvation
A
Afternoon show up at central station
D E
When the music hits I don't feel no pain
A D E
Now I'm outside in the cold again trying to find my way
[Chorus]
A5 D5 E5
The sun is setting in the combat zone
A5 D5 E5
The streets are empty all the bars are closed
A5
And I'm walking thru government center
D5 A5 E5 A5 D5
To some old clash on my headphones
[Verse 2]
A
Dodging the cops at the ATMs
D E
Three third hand suits and a record collection
A
From late night raids at the salvage bins
D E
Whatever god I pray to is broke as me
A
Got a busted 4 track and a dead end job
D E
Up at the downs on Friday trying to make it pay off
A
On a twelve to one, but I got shut out
D E
Man I'd be late to my own fuckin' funeral
A
Check the headlines passing out of town news
D E
Says the world is still fucked and run by fools
A
And it don't seem to matter which drugs you use
D E
It still turns out the same
[Chorus]
A5 D5 E5
The sun is setting in the combat zone
A5 D5 E5
The streets are empty all the bars are closed
A5
And I'm walking thru government center
D5 A5 E5 A5 D5
Junior record on my headphones
[Verse 3]
A D E
This record spins the same old song
A D E
The speaker's blown and the needle's worn
A D E
Don't matter nothing in the end
A
They say when you leave
D E
You can never go home again
[Solo]
A5 D5 E5
A5 D5 E5
[Chorus]
A5 D5 E5
The sun is setting in the combat zone
A5 D5 E5
The streets are empty all the bars are closed
A5
And I'm walking through government center
D5
Mighty Sparrow on my head phones
[Chorus]
A5 D5 E5
The sun is setting in the combat zone
A5 D5 E5
The streets are empty all the bars are closed
A5
And I'm walking through government center
D5
Wasted Potential on my head phones
[Chorus/Outro]
A5 D5 E5
The sun is setting in the combat zone
A5 D5 E5
The streets are empty and I'm on my own
A5
And I'm walking through government center
D5 A5 E5 A5 D5 A5
Tryin' to make my way back home
