Intro
SOL RE LAm DO (x2)
Verse #1:
SOL RE
Sirens ring, the shots ring out
LAm DO
A stranger cries, screams out loud
SOL RE
I had my world strapped against my back
LAm DO (D)
I held my hands, never knew how to act
Chorus
SOL
And the same black line that was drawn on you
RE
Was drawn on me
LAm
And now it's drawn me in
DO (D)
6th Avenue heartache
Verse #2:
Below me was a homeless man
I'm singing songs I knew complete
On the steps alone, his guitar in hand
It's fifty years, stood where he stands
(Chorus)
Verse #3:
Now walkin' home on those streets
The river winds move my feet
Subway steam, like silhouettes in dreams
They stood by me, just like moonbeams
(instrumental part: play same chords)
Verse #4:
Look out the window, down upon that street
And gone like a midnight was that man
But I see his 6 strings laid against that wall
And all his things, they all look so small
I got my fingers crossed on a shooting star
Just like me, just moved on
(Chorus/ad-lib to fade...)
