My first song on here, so it's not all lined up perfectly or whatever, but all the
chords are right.

Intro: E A E A

EI (022100@1)walked two miles in the rain in a suit
my feet torn up from my father's shoes.
AReceipts (x02220@1)and cards tumble out of my pocket
to the floor of the station. I still don't have a wallet.
EUp (022100@1)a flight of stairs to Herald Square.
The umbrellas of New York take up too much air.
      A (x02220@1)                                                                       E (022100@1)      
So we just walk real slow at double-arms length in unison!

My mom dragged me to the doctor today,
I had a cough for a month and it won't go away
I've been sleeping on floors for three hours a day
and I have no insurance, so she has to pay.
I can't talk to my friends because I'm embarrassed
that I keep sliding back down. I keep getting depressed.

     C# (x43121@1)     C (x32010@1)          G# (xx1114@1)     A- (x02220@1)We got our ideals but no way to achieve them.
         C# (x43121@1)            C (x32010@1)                  G# (xx1114@1)               A (x02220@1)            
- We got our degree but got no means to use it.
              C# (x43121@1)                 C (x32010@1)                 G# (xx1114@1)            A- (x02220@1)We're swimming in debt with no way to surmount it.

- We got thirty bucks and we spend it on whiskey.
- We got credit cards, so we got a new TV.
- We got mobile phones but no minutes so text me.

I make them again and again and again and again and again!
