_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ I'm not a highway, a place where nobody [Am] knows. _
The sign [A] has gone far, off in the distance.
I'm getting used to it now. _
_ Living on the edge, I'm not a highway, a place where nobody knows.
The ground's gone, I'm living in a ghetto.
_ I've been gone all of the [Am] time. _
[E] This ain't no party, _ this ain't no disco, _ this ain't no bullet.
_ _ [A] _
[E] No time for dancing, I'm not a delt.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] _ I'm a message _ to the receiver, _ hope I'm an answer someday. _ _
I'm free of [A] passports, I'm full of visas, no given note I [Em] remain.
_ [Bm] _
[Am] _ I'm on the [A] hillside, _ _ _ _ _ everything's ready to [G] roll. _ _
_ [A] Sleep in the daytime, work in the nighttime.
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
[E] _ This ain't no party, _ this ain't no disco, this ain't no bullet.
_ [G] _ [A] _
[E] _ No time for dancing, _ I'm not a delt.

[E] _ no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no bullet. _ _ _ _
No time for dancing, I'm not a delt.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Heard [Em] about [A] Houston, heard [Em] about Detroit, heard about Pittsburgh, yeah.
[A] _ _ _
You ought to know [Am] a nasty sound by [Em] the window, somebody [Am] see you up there. _ _
I've got some [A] groceries, some peanut butter, _ to last a couple of days.
[G] But [Am] I ain't got no speakers, _ ain't got no [Em] headphones, ain't got no records to play.
_ [E]
Why stay in college?
Why go to night school?
Thought I'd be dippin' in the sun, _ _ can't find a _ lesson or postcard.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ [E] _
This ain't no party, _ this ain't no disco, _ this ain't no bullet.
I _ _ _ _ _ told you, I'm a kiss you good.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
Trouble in Trent?
_ Not through the roadblock. _
We've been living with the car. _ _
We got computers, we're tapping phone lines.
No, not that in a lie.
[Am] _ _
We dress like hoodies, we dress like housewives.
Or in a [Em] suit and tie.
[Am] _ _
Changed my hairstyle so many times now.
[A] Oh, what I look like. _ _
You make me shiver, feel so tender.
We've been [Am] complaining to you. _
Don't get exhausted, I'm good surviving.
You're gonna get to sleep.
_ _ [A]
I don't have _ a nose, that won't help me survive. _ _
My chest is aching, and it burns like a furnace.
A burner gives me a laugh.
