[C]
[G]
I [C]
don't know how that [E] song starts.
What?
In matching blue raincoats, our shoes were on showboats, we [G] kicked around.
From stairway to station, we made a sensation [G] with a Gallopout crowd.
[C] And oh, what a bargain, we're too easy [G] targets for the old men at the off track.
[C] Who paid in pullover and crumbled old dollars, which we squirreled away [Em] in our rat-trap hotel by the [Am] freeway.
And [C] we slept in Sundays.
[G]
Your parents were anxious, your cool was contagious, [G] the old school.
[C] You left without leaving a note for your [G] pre-mate, sweet mother, why your brother was so cruel.
[C] And here in the alleys, your spirits will rally, [G] if you learn quick, you'll make a fast buck.
[C] In bathrooms and ballrooms, our love stood in air, and [G] we bit our tongue.
[Em] Shackling lips into our lungs, [Am] and we were falling, such a [C] garland falling.
[Em] Bathrooms and [D] high walls, [Am] we used like a [C] pamphlet.
[Em] Hold [D] on, Lord, [C]
[Em] celebrate [D] your many thoughts.
[Am] I'll get you a [C] plug, [Am] we'll change your mom's runway, [B]
[G] on the first floor.
[Cm] Get down.

[G]
[C] Among all the urchins and all tiny merchants [G] of the old town,
[C] we learned to haul with one iron cue [G] ball, and we never let the bastards get us down.
[C] We laughed off quick tricks, the old man with limp [G] fish, like a lemonade to the waterfront park.
[C] At four in the morning, hang on, cold and boring, [G] we huddled close [Em] in the bus stop in Fort Woodridge, [Am] Poland.
Our hands were [C] tightly holding, [Em] and it's a [D] lot of fun.
Hold [Am] on, Lord, [C] celebrate [Em] [D]
[C]
[Em] your [D]
many thoughts.
[Am] I'll get you a plug, [C]
we'll change your mom's runway, [Cm]
[G] on the first floor.
[C] We'll [Cm] ride [G] on the first floor.
[C] We'll [Cm] dive on [G] the first [C] floor.
We'll [Cm] dive on [G] the first [D]
floor.
