A5 C5 Blackout, heatwave, .44 caliber homicide G5 D5 (G D G D) The bums drop dead and dogs go mad in packs on the West Side A5 C5 Young girl standing on a ledge looks like another suicide G5 D5 (G D G D) She wants to hit those bricks 'Cause the news at six gotta stick to a deadline
E5 F#m D5 A5 While the millionaires hide in Beekman Place The bag ladies throw their bones in my face E5 F#m D5 A5 I get attacked by a kid with stereo sound I don't want to hear it but he won't turn it down E5 C#7 F#m E5 D5 Life is tough but it's just enough To hold back the tears until it's closing time
A5 D5 I survived, I'm still alive E5(hold) A5 A5 A5 A5 D5 D5 (G D G D) But I'm getting close to the borderline Close to the borderline
A5 A5 A5 A5 D5 D5 (G D G D)
A5 C5 A buck three eighty Won't buy you much lately on the street these days G5 D5 (G D G D) And when you can't get gas You know you can't drive fast anymore on the parkways A5 C5 Rich man, poor man, either way American shoved into the lost and found G5 D5 (G D G D) The no nukes yell we're gonna all go to hell With the next big meltdown
E5 F#m D5 A5 I got remote control and a color T.V. I don't change channels so they must change me E5 F#m D5 A5 I got real close friends that will get me high They don't know how to talk and they ain't gonna try E5 C#7 F#m E5 D5 I shouldn't bitch, I shouldn't cry I'd start a revolution but I don't have time A5 D5 I don't know why I'm still a nice guy E5(hold) A5 A5 A5 A5 D5 D5 (G D G D) But I'm getting close to the borderline Close to the borderline
A5 A5 A5 A5 D5 D5 (G D G D)
C#5 D5 I thought I'd sacrifice so many things C#5 E5 I thought I'd throw them all away C#5 F#m E5 I didn't think I needed anything D5 E5 Ah But you can't afford to squander what you're not prepared to pay
A5 C5 G5 D5 (G D G D) A5 C5 G5 D5 (G D G D)
E5 F#m D5 A5 I need a doctor for my pressure pills I need a lawyer for my medical bills E5 F#m D5 A5 I need a banker to finance my home I need security to back my loan E5 C#7 F#m E5 D5 It isn't new what I'm going through But everybody knows you got to break sometime A5 D5 Another night I fought the good fight E5(hold) A5 A5 A5 A5 D5 D5 (G D G D) But I'm getting closer to the borderline Closer to the borderline
