RIFF 1:
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Well I shuffled through the city on the Fourth of July
A (x02220@1) Had a firecracker waiting to blow
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Breaking like a robber who was making his way
A (x02220@1) To the cities of Mexico
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Lived in an apartment out on Avenue A
A (x02220@1) Had a tar on the corner of Tenth
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Had myself a lover who was finer than gold
A (x02220@1) But I been broke I've been busted up since

A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Found myself a picture that would fit in the folds
A (x02220@1) Of my wallet and it stayed pretty good
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Still amazed I didn't lose it out on Lutheran Place
A (x02220@1) When I was drunk and I was thinking of you
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Every day the children they were singing the tunes
A (x02220@1) Out on the streets and you could hear from the side
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Used to take the subway out of Houston and Third
A (x02220@1) I would wait for you and not try to hide

New York
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) I remember Christmas in the blistering cold
A (x02220@1) In a church on the Upper West Side
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Babe, you stood there singing I was holding you arm
A (x02220@1) You were holding my trust like a child
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Found a lot of trouble out on Avenue B
A (x02220@1) But I tried to keep the overhead low
A (x02220@1) D/A (x00232@1) Farewell to the city and the love of my life
