Sanctuary

E                             B
Well I got to Haight I was a little late
                 C#m      B
It was an empty dream, I found
      G#m              C#m
Gone away, child, to another day
          F#m                 B
When they passed the flowers around
      E                B
So I turned my collar away from the chill
       C#m           B
Of the San Francisco night
           G#m                C#m
Turned my head back cross the water, Lord
     F#m              B         E
Everything’s going to be all right
E7

[Chorus]
               A                  G#m
There might be war in the core of Baltimore
     F#m            E
Or a breakdown in L.A.
               A                    G#m
They bring you down in the heart of Memphis town
    F#m                   B
And people look the other way
             A                   G#m
Well, if the lights burn cold in New York City
      F#m               C#m   B
It’s sad, but God, it’s true
      E        F#m      G#m    A
I got John and Mary and sanctuary
   B             E
On Telegraph Avenue

[Verse 2]
         E                      B
Well the eagle don’t fly the Alabama sky
      C#m                B
They chained him to the ground
     G#m               C#m
Colorado, Lord, don’t want me now
     F#m                  B
It’s all right I’ve been found
    E                            B
So Mama stop your crying, don’t worry about me
            C#m                B
It’s gonna work out fine some day
        G#m               C#m
If you gave me a million dollar bill
              F#m      B    E
You couldn’t turn my heart away.
E7

[Chorus/Outro]
               A                  G#m
There might be war in the core of Baltimore
     F#m            E
Or a breakdown in L.A.
               A                    G#m
They bring you down in the heart of Memphis town
    F#m                   B
And people look the other way
             A                   G#m
Well, if the lights burn cold in New York City
      F#m               C#m   B
It’s sad, but God, it’s true
      E        F#m      G#m    A
I got John and Mary and sanctuary
   B             A
On Telegraph Avenue
      E
Oh I love you
     A
I do love you
     E
Oh my friend I love you
     A
Oh, ohhh
