(i - The Death of St Jimmy) 
A E D C# A 
 
A E D C# A 
 
A    E         D    C# A 
My heart is beating from me 
 
A      E           D  C# A  
I am standing all alone 
 
A           E  D       C# A 
Please call me    only 
 
A E         D C#     A 
If you are coming home 
 
E                       A 
Waste another year flies by 
 
E                      A 
Wait a night or two 
 
D                 A   D    A   E 
You taught me how to live 
 
A D E A D A D E 
 
A D E A D A D E 
 
          A         D  E 
In the streets of shame, 
 
                       A            D           A D  E 
Where you've lost your dreams in the rain, 
 
                  A    D E 
There's no sign of hope, 
 
                          D                         A      E 
The stems and seeds of the last of the dope, 
 
               A      D E 
There's a glow of light, 
 
             A                   D       A D   E 
The St. Jimmy is the spark in the night, 
 
              A    D    E 
Bearing gifts and trust, 
 
                 D          A     E 
The fixture in the city of lust 
 
 
               F#m  E      A 
What the hells your name, 
 
                    F#m                     E          A   
What's your pleasure and what's your pain? 
 
             F#m   E    A 
Do you dream too much? 
 
             D                              A    E 
Do you think what you need is a crutch? 
 
 
A D E A D A D E 
 
          A        D E                        A               D   A D E 
In the crowd of pain, St. Jimmy comes without any shame, 
 
                           A      
He says "We're fucked up", 
 
      D                   E 
But we're not the same, 
 
                         D                                       E 
And mom and dad are the ones you can blame 
 
           F#m E A 
Jimmy died today 
 
                    F#m           E        A 
He blew his brains out into the bay, 
 
          F#m E A                D                     E 
In the state of mind in my own private suicide

Well nobody cares, 
 
       D A G    A 
And nobody cares, 
 
         D A G    A       D A G   A 
Does anyone care if nobody cares?

Jesus is filling out paperwork now, 
 
G           D     A          D 
At the facility on east 12th Street, 
 
D                         G   D 
He's not listening to a word now, 
 
G               D   
He's in his own world, 
 
        A          D 
And he's daydreaming 
 
                                G                D 
He'd rather be doing something else now, 
 
        D                    G                      A     D 
Like cigarettes and coffee with the underbelly, 
 
                                      G      D 
His life's on the line with anxiety now, 
 
        D            G 
And she had enough, 
 
        A           D 
And he's had plenty

Is there a possibility?

I fell asleep while watching Spike TV, 
 
         D               A 
After 10 cups of coffee, 
 
                  G         A 
And you're still not here, 
 
D                     A 
Dreaming of a song, 
 
           G                       A 
When something went wrong, 
 
               D            A 
And you can't tell anyone, 
 
        G            A 
'Cos no one's here 
 
Bm                 A 
Left me here alone, 
 
            G                             D 
When I should have stayed home, 
 
        Bm             A 
After 10 cups of coffee, 
 
     D 
I'm thinking, 
 
D          A 
Nobody likes you, 
 
G             A 
Everyone left you, 
 
             D             A 
They're all out without you, 
 
G       A 
Havin' fun, 
 
D              A    
Everyone left you, 
 
G           A   
Nobody likes you, 
 
             D             A 
They're all out without you, 
 
G       A 
Havin' fun, 
 
                       D 
Where'd you go?

In over 22 days, 
 
           G      A 
So get off of my case, 
 
       G     A 
Get off of my case, 
 
G      A   D ... 
Off of my case 
 
(v - We're Coming Home Again) 
 
... Bm G A D Bm G A 
 
D Bm G A D Bm G A 
 
 
 
Here they come marching down the street, 
Like a desperation murmur of a heart beat, 
Coming back from the edge of town, 
Underneath their feet 
 
G A 
 
The time has come and it's going nowhere, 
Nobody ever said that life was fair now, 
Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear, 
In the summer heat 
 
D A 
 
G                 A                               G 
The world is spinning around and around, 
 
                 A 
Out of control again, 
 
D A 
 
G                A           Bm                    E 
From the 7-11 to the fear of breaking down, 
 
      D            G       A        
So send my love a letterbomb, 
 
    D    G         A 
To visit me in hell, 
 
G              A     G A 
We're the ones going 
 
D A 
 
D 
Home. 
 
                        A 
We're coming home again

Home. 
 
                        A 
We're coming home again 
 
G 
I started fuckin' running, 
 
                          D 
As soon as my feet touch ground, 
 
G 
We're back in the barrio, 
 
           A                                    G        A 
But to you and me, that's Jingletown. That's 
 
D 
Home.

We're coming home again,
