I'm standing in Brooklyn just waiting for something to happen.
Eb5                                  Ab5       Bb5      Eb5    Ab5 Bb5  
I can't help but love thinking that everyone doesn't get it.

To my left there's a window Where did I go?
      Eb5                       Ab5       Bb5
My reflection just planted two rows of coal
     Eb5             Ab5      Bb5           Eb5    Ab5 Bb5 
And bad ideas, but ideas nonetheless and so

Eb5                Ab5            Bb5         Eb5      
I put one foot in front of the other one. (Oh oh oh!)
Ab5             Bb5       Eb5            Ab5            Bb5       Eb5    Ab5 Bb5 
I don't need a new love or a new life just a better place to die.
Eb5                Ab5            Bb5         Eb5 
I put one foot in front of the other one. (Oh oh oh!)
Ab5             Bb5       Eb5            Ab5            Bb5       Eb5    Ab5 Bb5
I don't need a new love or a new life just a better place to die.

I happen to stumble upon a chapel last night.
And I can't help but back up when I think of what happens inside.
I got friends looked in boxes. And no way to live.
But you call it a sin. Isn't up to them.
After all, after all I thought we were all your children,
But I will die for my own sins thanks a lot.
We'll rise up ourselves thanks for nothing at all,
so up off the ground up for fathers who are nothing but dust now.

I put one foot in front of the other one. (Oh oh oh!)
I don't need a new love or a new life just a better place to die.
I put one foot in front of the other one. (Oh oh oh!)
I don't need a new love or a new life just a better place to die.

Maybe I should learn to shut my mouth.
I am over twenty-five and I can't make a name for myself some nights I break down and cry
I'm lucky that my father's still alive he's been fighting all his life
and if this is all I've ever know then may his soul live on forever in my song.

I put one foot in front of the other one. (Oh oh oh!)
I don't need a new love or a new life just a better place to die.
I put one foot in front of the other one. (Oh oh oh!)
I don't need a new love or a new life just a better place to die.

In front of the other one
In front of the other one
Just a better place to die.
