G5      D5              A5               C5 
As you walk along the sidewalks of the city 
G5         D5        A5            C5 
You see a man with hunger in his face 
G5       D5                     A5            C5 
And all around you  crumbling buildings and graffiti 
G5           D5                A5       C5 
As you bend down to tie your shoelace 
G5      D5                      A5    C5 
Sirens scream  but you don't listen 
G5           D5                 A5     C5 
You have to reach home before night 
G5           D5                  A5                  C5 
But now the sun beats down  it makes the sidewalks glisten 
G5           D5                   A5   C5 
And somehow you just don't feel right 
G5        E5    C5            G5 
Hold me, baby, give me some faith 
G5                  E5     C5                 G5 
Let me know you're there  let me touch your face 
C5       G5     C5       G5    C5 
Give me love  give me grace 
        G5            C5                        G5    C5  G5   C5 
Tell me good things  tell me that my world is safe 
G5           D5               A5    C5 
You pass by bars with empty stages 
G5             D5             A5   C5 
Three o'clock drinkers fall by 
G5          D5                A5    C5 
Chairs are placed on top of tables 
G5                D5                A5   C5 
As you brush the hair out of your eyes 
G5       D5                A5           C5 
A woman stops you with a question 
G5                D5            A5    C5 
So you drop some money in her hand 
G5             D5                A5            C5 
She sleeps in doorways and bus stations 
G5          D5           A5    C5 
And you'll never understand 
G5        E5    C5            G5 
Hold me, baby, give me some faith 
G5                  E5     C5                 G5 
Let me know you're there  let me touch your face 
C5       G5     C5       G5    C5 
Give me love  give me grace 
        G5            C5                        G5    C5  G5   C5  G5 
Tell me good things  tell me that my world is safe
