Standard (EADGBE)
Young girl upon a sidewalk
Silver cross upon her silver chain
She was born and raised in Coney Island
But shell never make it back that way again
Young boy upon a highway
Walk a mile to work a double shift
On all that long and lonely skyway
Theres a heavy fog that might never lift
Chorus
x2)
Trouble been hard
Although I know that in that I aint alone
Young mom upon a bus seat
One child pullin on her dress
Another softly asking to be held
Oh, heaven knows, I need so much less
Chorus
x2)
Solo
Verse chords
Criminals by the river
Says one to one, Be still,
Did you see that figure on the levee?
And if the law dont find us, Lord, the devil will.
Chorus x2
Ain't in the truth
