[E] [Em]
Alright.
[D] Hey, [G] I'd like to go upstate.
I'd like to go up the river [G] now.
I'm [B] gonna walk up the Bottle Street, cause I have no place else to go.
[Em] I'm gonna walk, I'm gonna walk, I'm gonna walk up the street.
[G] I'm gonna walk up the street, cause I have no place else [E] to go.
[Em] [G]
Yeah, oh yeah.
Well, [B] I used to wake up in a back bed when I was 17 years old.
I was lonely and scared.
Oh, at 5 o'clock a.m.
And I would wake up on Sunday morning, and I wouldn't see any friends.
None of them.
Well, perhaps I could go to the bus station and fall asleep.
Or sit around until the stores are open.
[Em] But the wintertime was so cold, and I'm on some streets that I had no place else to go.
You see, I [G] have a sore throat, [Em] and my hands were always cold.
Walking along, and I'd walk up the Bottle Street, [E] cause I have no place else to [Em] go.
Well, I'm gonna walk, I'm gonna [E] walk, [Em] I'm gonna walk up the [Am] street.
I'm gonna walk up the [Em] street, cause I have no place else to go.

[Em]
Oh yeah, now I'm thinking of it.
Now listen.
Well, well I have a sore throat, and my hands are cold from walking along.
But I'm gonna walk up the street, cause I have [G] no place else to go.
Well, [C#] it's zero degrees in the bleak, horizontal back bay.
My hands are cold from this bitter, deathless loneliness.
Well, I'm gonna walk up [Em] the Bottle Street and be bored long as I have no place else to go.
I'm gonna walk, I'm gonna walk, I'm gonna walk up the street.
I'm gonna walk up the street, cause I have no place else to go.
One more time.
Well, I'm gonna walk, I'm gonna walk, I'm gonna walk up the street.
I'm gonna walk up the street, cause I have no place else to go.
[E]
