[Ebm]
[Eb] I'm taking the tight streets now, cruising down the alleyway now,
I'm feeling the cool breeze across my face, I'm losing the fun and I'm a
weak and too [Ebm] fake, cause I might let go, oh like this.
Music in my head, [Gbm] no place in [Ebm] my head, streets are all made green, high frequencies
yeah, no place like home, no place like home, small town in the city of vast [Gm] unreached.
[Eb]
