[Verse 1]
G
On the park bench I slept on, raindrops are fallin' on
Am D
The newspapers coverin' me
C G
I hear early mornin' motors
C Am D
And I know the world is wakin' for the dawn
C
But my mind's down a dark alley
G Em
Somewhere where last night you loved me
C G C G
And in the early morning chill, my arms remember still
C G D G
But I'm droppin' like a stone, lonesome to the bone
[Chorus]
C G Em
The sun is roughly risin', on the roofs of Stagger Town
C D G
The time for sweatin' poison out, is just now comin' round
C Am G C
That high flyin' last night, is over with and gone
G D G
Leavin' me, lonesome to the bone
[Break]

[Verse 2]
G
I walked the way the wind blows, but any way the wind goes
Am D
Be good enough for me
C G
My mind is like that traffic jam
C Am D
And I walk between the cars, lost and alone
C
Your hot breath and your laughter
G Em
Keep flashin' through my mind to warm me
C G C G
But the naked light of day, soon makes it fade away
C G D G
And I'm goin' down alone, lonesome to the bone
[Chorus]
C G Em
The sun is roughly risin', on the roofs of Stagger Town
C D G
The time for sweatin' poison out, is just now comin' round
C G C
That high flyin' last night, is over with and gone
G D G G
Leavin' me, lonesome to the bone
