_ _ _ _ _ Walking down the _ boulevard [Bb] I stared through puddles in the dark [F] I turned a corner and
crossed the lot _ [C] Ran through the park now let's not get shot
Begged through the laundry into the bag [Bb] I walked into a body smoking blunt
[Cm] I hit it twice and I gave it back _ [C] I [G] walked away in smoke, stents, [Gm] [C] clout
I heard a whistle I whistled back [Bb] Not sure if it was a bird or just some
[Dm] brought on [F] crack I smeared a quarter I rolled a stoke
_ [C] I lit it up and gave that bum a smoke _ Down by the bay I hopped a boat
[Bb] It looked like a dragon but it might have just been _ [F] Maldipoke
I sailed away for hours too _ [Gm] Only to dock in New York [F] City's loo
And now I'm all [G] alone Yet [C] so _ strong
_ Yet [Dm] nothing brings me down I will [F] forever stand [G] my ground
Because _ [F] _ I'm not [G] at all alone [C] And together we are strong
_ _ [Dm] Yet nothing brings us down We will [F] forever stand [G] our ground
_ _ [C] But in the water when the ship hit the shore [Bb] I scraped my shins up on a reef's raft decor
[F] Took all my clothes off and I went for a run And [C] I will need to find myself on the other side
And there was the ocean with the waves riding past
[Bb] Curse the air, my ride into the left lung beach lit up by [F] the boardwalks
Long stretch of park lights lit up by [C] the cop cars speeding down the wood
He lives there all [F] alone _ _
[G] _ _ And [C] so is yours
_ _ Yet [Dm] nothing brings them down They [F] always try to shake [G] our ground
But [F] we're not [G] at all alone And [C] together we are strong
Yet _ _ [Dm] nothing brings us down We will [F] forever stand [G] our ground
Together [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [C] we [Dm] are [G] strong [C] Forever _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] _ [C] stand [Dm] our ground
_ _ [Cm] _ _ [Am] _ _
_ [F] _ [Cm] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ [F] _ Let's draw [G] tomorrow their [C] way You'll spend even though [Dm] I don't
It will all just, it will [F] all just wash [G] away
_ [D] _ [F] _ This could [G] have been all ran [C] just like the one he wrote
Engaging [Dm] my _ ideas _ _ [F] to use them as [G] his own
_ _ [F] And with a grand [G] formation spoken with no words [C] I asked if I could speak them and he kindly told me no
I [Dm] applied the serious tone in the entrance he translated [F] He took it as a deep stoke [G] and pulled me to the sea
But [F] now I'm all [G] alone Yet [C] so strong
_ _ Yet [Dm] nothing brings me down I will [F] forever stand [G] my ground
Because _ [F] I'm not [G] at all alone [C] And together we are strong
Yet nothing _ _ [Dm] _ _ brings us down We will [F] forever stand [G] our ground
