Standard (EADGBE)

This pavement feels cold on my face

 And my bones have seen better days

 Be a friend, pick me up off the ground

 Nice and easy, oooh

 I got a scar, you can see it from afar

 Like cigarette burns on the top of my guitar

 If you wish me luck, don't tell me to break a leg

 I coulda been walking on a peg

 And at the end of the day I will return to the city of lakes

 Where the real people roam close to where all the real waves break

I got a girl, she got lots of style

 You can see every tooth in her mouth when she smiles

 She's prettier than you, and you, and you

 Yeah, she's prettier than you

 I got a dream, I hope that it comes true

 And if it don't, don't know what I'm gonna do

 I got a dream, I got a dream

 And at the end of the day I will return to the city of lakes

 Where the real people roam close to where all the real waves break

 I lost a friend in this past year

 I miss his guitar playing in my ear

 Be a friend, take away all my fears

 Nice and easy, nice and easy, nice and easy
