I had a [A] firecracker waiting to blow Breaking [D] like a robber who was making his
way to the cities of [A] Mexico Living in [D] a farm on Adam Avenue way
Had a car [A] on the corner of town Had myself a [D] lover who was finer than gold
But I've been broken, I've been [A] busted or sinned
[E] Love [A] don't play [E] games [A] with me It [D] ain't more like she did before

Still amazed I didn't [D] lose it on the look of the face when I was drunk and I [A] was thinking of you

Found a lot [D] of trouble out on Avenue B but I tried to [A] keep her over hello
Farewell to the [D] city and the love of my life used to live before [A] we had to go
