[Verse 1]
Bm
  Stumbled up the alley over
Bm
tins and wires and broken boxes
A                    G
Left for us to trip across
Bm
  Another bunch of rotten bad luck
Bm
you can't win man what'd I tell you?
A                        G
Mucking hands can have a cost


[Chorus 1]
      D
First soaring then collision
G                   Bm
Like my television stories
    A          G
all end up the same So we
     D
just drink deep inhale and
     G
cough Move on before it
              Bm
wears off are we smarter
A               G
than this shell game?

I blinked


[Verse 2]
Bm
  Up the street to Grand Avenue
Bm
end up at the water front
         A
Where pollution's made the
       G    Bm
sky go black   Never trust the
                 Bm
books and never screw the
         Bm
ones who don't deserve it
 A                         G
Slump let reflections play back


[Chorus 2]
      D
First soaring then collision
G                   Bm
Like my television stories
    A          G
all end up the same So we
     D
just drink deep inhale and

[Bridge]
            G
It's no use kid I
           G
can't stop bleeding
                 D
Take this old guitar
             D
it's all I'm leaving
     D
It's seen the Jersey
A
pines bright neon signs
                      G
And rode the Brighton line
              G
I'll tell you what
       G
you're up against
         G
It's the toughest fucking
D
town I've ever seen
                     A
And you're going it alone
                   A
you're an outsider so
                  Em G
Keep your profile low
