A                      F#m
In a tired part of the city
D
Hiding from the fast talk
D                  E   A
Watch 'Don't walk' to 'Walk'
D
Easy when you're dreaming
D
Staring at the movies
D
Standing in a circle,
D                     A
Laughing at the wrong time.

D
If alcohol could take me there.
D
I'd take a shot a minute
D                   A
And be there by the hour.
D
Take a walk around Times Square
D
With a pistol in my suitcase
D                  A
And my eyes on the TV.

A                     F#m
In a car taking a back seat
D
Staring out the window
D
Thinking about danger.
D
Playing in a wrong chord
D
Fighting but I'm not free.
D
Talking on the telephone
D                 E   A
Talking about you and me.

D
If Jesus Christ could take me here
D
I'd fall dawn on my knees,
D                        A
Have no questions to His answers.
D
Take a walk around Times Square
D
With a pistol in my suitcase
D                  A                  
And my eyes on the TV.

D
Alcohol could take me there.
D
I'd take a shot a minute
D                   A
And be there by the hour.
D
Take a walk around Times Square
D
With a pistol in my suitcase
D                  A
And my eyes on the TV.

A E D
A                       F#m
And if I die gaining my senses
D
Wake up in a hotel
D               A
Staring at the ceiling.
