B F# As I walk through the streets of my new city F# B My back feeling much better, I suppose B F# I've reclaimed the use of my imagination F# B For better or for worse, I've yet to know B F# But I always knew you'd be the one to understand me, F# B I guess that's why it took so long to get things right. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/f/fun/197321.html ] B Suddenly I'm lost F# On my street B On my block F# Oh why, Oh why F# B Oh why haven't you been there for me? B F# B F# Can't you see, I'm losing my mind this time? B This time it's for real, I can see F# The tops of trees are turning red F# The beggars near bodegas grin at me F# I think they want something F# I close my eyes, I tell myself to breathe F# B And be calm. B Be calm. B F# B I know you feel like you are breaking down. B F# I know that it gets so hard sometimes. B Be calm. B F# I'm scared that everyone is out to get me. F# B "These days before you speak to me you pause." B F# "I always see you looking out your window." F# B "After all, you lost your band, you left your mom."

B Be calm. B F# B I know you feel like you are breaking down. B F# I know that it gets so hard sometimes. B Be calm. B Take it from me, I've been there a thousand times. B E B You hate your pulse because it thinks you're still alive B E And everything's wrong E F# It just gets so hard sometimes F# Be calm. E I don't remember much that night, B Just walking, thinking fondly of you E Thinking how the worst is yet to come F# E When from that street corner came a song E And I can't remember the man, B F# The panhandler or his melody. E B E F# The words exchanged had far exceeded any change I'd given thee. |
