[Verse 1]
      G              Em  G      
Out on Allen Street, it's 7 in 
C          C
the morning
      G              Em  G      
If I help him up, will he give 
C               C
me fair warning?
      G                Em          
Let me lick the wounds I got while 
G      C
I was out last night

Wish you were here with me but

Your girlfriend's wasting your time

Out on Bowery at midnight in the

          G                 Em    
I can't help but smile when she

says I'm her lover
        G              Em  G      
Back in Harlem now, you won't even
