Am C Nights on Kirkwood so serene Am C Far from the sirens and the screams Am I could write or I could read C Go next door and smoke some weed Am C As long as I don't have to think Am C About who the hell's running this mess Am C Or what shit they're writing up the Stone or NME Am Go out and make last call C Or sit here and do nothing at all Am What's it to me? C All those hours of wasted time C Have never passed my mind. Riff 1&2 Here I am comfortable Riff 1&2 In arm's reach of the black remote.
