Intro


I'm not sure if this is 100% right, but I couldn't find it anywhere so had a go. 

G Em


        Em              Bm

Small town girl, small town girl

     E                   Bm    

Passed by empty parts unkind and in a small town world

    A7        Bm        C        Gm

To the streets of New York City, pull some triumph in your mind

A7             Bm              C               D

And our liberty, unladen found in you is so unkind

    Em        Bm

People change, as bidden little girls

    G7                    Bm

Did you want some other promise, small town girl

    Am C        D   

In a search for liberation

             C

All the children in the wind

    Am               D        C        D7    G

Where a small town congregation cast you out or let you in


Chorus

    D7        Am     G

No you don't have to say

    D7        F    G

I know where I go astray

           F            C    

It was gunna go down anyway

G                F        G

I only wish that I could've known what I know now today


(same as verse 1)
As a boy, as a boy

Well I was just so serious, as a boy

And all the streets of New York City,

Shut me right down to my core

Now I've been battered scared and broken

But I'm not scared anymore


No you don't have to say

I know where I go estranged

It was gunna go down anyway

I only wish that I could have know what I know now today


Instrumental

yeah yeahhh

da da dada da da da

da da dada da da da


No you don't have to say?

I know where I go astray


No you don't have to say

I know where I go astray

It was gunna go down anyway

I only wish that I could have known what I know now today

I only wish that I could have known what I know now today

I only wish that I could have known what I know now today
