...BALTIMORE... by Randy Newman
---------------................

*from 'Little Criminals' (1977)*


Intro:

Em  G  A7  C (x2)

Verse 1:

Em              G       A7  C
 Beat-up little seagull,
            Em    G  A7  C
On a marble stair.
Em                  G      A7  C
 Tryin' to find the ocean;
              Em    G  A7  C
Lookin' every-where.

Verse 2:

Em                 G
 Hard times in the city,
A7    C                Em  G  A7  C
 In a hard town by the sea.
Em                G
 Ain't nowhere to run to,
A7     C                      Em   G  A7  C
 There ain't nothin' here for free.

Verse 3:

Em             G       A7  C
 Hooker on the corner,
              Em     G  A7  C
Waitin' for a train.
Em                  G        A7  C
 Drunk lyin' on the sidewalk,
                Em   G  A7  C
Sleepin' in the rain.

Verse 3:

Em                   G     A7  C
 And they hide their faces,
                    Em    G  A7  C
And they hide their eyes.
Em               G     A7  C
 'Cos the city's dyin',
                    Em   G  A7  C
And they don't know why.

Chorus 1:

Em   C
 Oh...
Dsus   Bm7
 Balti-more,
         D4/C  C
Man it's hard;
        Dsus  Bm7
Just to live.

Em   C
 Oh...
Dsus   Bm7
 Balti-more,
         D4/C  C
Man it's hard;
        Dsus  Bm7
Just to live,
        Em
Just to live.

Em             G     A7
 Get my sister Sandy,
    C                 Em   G  A7  C
And my little brother Ray.
Em             G     A7
 Buy a big old wagon,
   C             Em   G  A7  C
To haul us all a-way.

Verse 5:

Em               G       A7  C
 Live out in the country,
                     Em    G  A7  C
Where the mountain's high.
Em            G           A7  C
 Never comin' back there,
                Em  G  A7  C
'Till the day I die.

 Oh...

Just to live.

 Oh...

 Balti-more,

Just to live,

Just to live.

Just to live.
