Capo 5'th (Works with 3)
|
|
|
|
C
|
I'll lock myself away and not face one more day
|
Dm
|
On the streets of this town
|
G
|
And all I've got to lose, is a feelin' called the blues
|
C
|
And a little ol' frown;
|
|
I signed your dotted line and did my best at tryin',
|
Dm
|
Givin' all I could give
|
G
|
And all I've gotten back is this feelin' that I lack
|
C
|
What I'm needing to live
|
|
Dm C
|
And you say you don't see it when a grown man starts to cry,
|
Dm F G
|
You turn your face away and you walk on by.
|
|
I found myself a girl who brightened up my world
|
>From december to may
|
And then ran off with Jim, but I'll defer to him
|
And his purple beret
|
'Cause he knows how to wheel and dealand not to feel
|
When he's knockin' you down
|
And I know he'll succeed ' cause thats just what you need
|
On the streets of this town
|
|
And you say you don't see it when a grown man starts to cry,
|
You turn your face away and you walk on by.
|
|
I'll lock myself away and not face one more day
|
On the streets of this town
|
And all I've got to lose, is a feelin' called the blues
|
That's been going around;
|
I fit your crazy norm and wore your uniform
|
Where you told me to go
|
And got back in return this here feelin' that I've learned
|
What the Indians know
|
|
And you say you don't see it when a grown man starts to cry,
|
You turn your face away and you walk on by.
