[B] [F#m] [E]
Just [G#m] turn it down, keep it down.
[E] [G]
[C#] Sorry, it's funny, [G] I thought about Warren today because there was a [A] street called Duquesne,
[G#] Rue Duquesne Strasse.
[E] And it reminded me of [G] a song that Warren was writing with Thibault Burnett [E] about 40 years ago
about [C] a spy named [B] Duquesne.
[Em] I don't [Bm] think they ever finished the [A] song.
[N] I have [G] parts of this song in my head, [F] unfinished songs.
[E]
[Em] [E]
This is a song about a part of town that Thibault didn't want to turn into a part of town.
Part of our town, part of Los Angeles.

[E] [A]
[E] [A]
[E] And I'm all strung out [B] on the highway, on the outskirts [E] of town.
[A]
[E] And every time I hear those sirens [C#m] wail, [E] I'm gonna start a [B] heart attack.
And your big Samoan boyfriend said he's gonna break my [E] back.

Carmelita, hold me tight in her arm, [E] I think I'm sinking [A] down.
[E] And I'm all strung [B] out on the highway, on the outskirts [E] of town.

Well, I pulled my sickle, [A] and [E] I went looking for [B] my man.
He hangs out down over on the street, and I'm a part of [A] chicken [E] stand.
[A] Carmelita, hold me tight in her arm, [E] I think I'm sinking [A] down.
[E] And I'm all strung [B] out on the highway, on the outskirts of [E] town.

Well, I'm sitting here playing solitaire, in my [Em] curled-window [B] deck.
And the [F#m] caddy won't give [B] me no more [F#m] methadone, and they cut off your [D#] welfare [E] check.
