[Gm] [C] [Gm] [C]
[Gm] Folks we finally [C] got a headline, [Gm] Newsies crushed as [C] bulls attack, [Eb] Crutchies calling [F] me dumb
Crips [C] just too damn slow.
[Gm] Guys are fighting, bleeding, [C] falling, [Gm] Thanks to good ol' [C] Captain Jack.
Captain Jack [Gb] just wants to close his eyes [D] and [Bb] go!
Let [G] me [C] where [Am]
[F] [G] they won't [F] never [C] find me, [G] And [E] tomorrow [Bm] won't remind [C] me [F] of today.
[C] When [F] the [G] city's finally [Em] sleeping, [Dm] And the moon [G] looks [Em] old and gray,
[C] I [Gm] get [Bb] on a train [C] that's bound [Am] [Dm] for Santa Fe.
[G] And [C] I'm gone, and [Am] I'm done, No [G] more running, [F] no more [C] lying,
[G] No more [E] fat old men [C] denying me [F] my pay.
[C] [F] Just a [G] moon so [Em] big and yellow, [F] It turns [G] night [E] right into day.
Dreams [Am] come [F] true, Yet ain't through, In [C] Santa [D] Fe.
[C] [G] [F] Where [G] does it [F] say you [G] gotta live [C] and die here?
[F] Where [G] does it say [F] your guide [G] can't [C] catch a break?
Why should you only take what you're [Am] given?
Why should you spend [Fm] your whole life [Am] living trapped?
Where there ain't no future, even at seventeen, [C] Breaking your back for someone [Am] else's sake.
[F] If the life don't [Bb] seem to suit ya, [Dm] How about a [E] change of scene?
[Em] Far from the lousy headlines, And the deadlines in between.

[D] [Em] I ain't [A] getting any [D] younger, [G] And I [A] wanna start [B] brand [Gb] new.
[Em] I need space, and fresh air, [D] Let them laugh in [A] my face,
I [Bm] don't [A] care, Save [G] my place.
