  In the ironbound section near

Avenue L
            F                      
  Where the Portuguese women come 
  Fadd9
to see what you sell
       Am               Am7
  The clouds so low the morning so 
slow
         F                     Fadd9
  As the wires cut through the sky


VERSE 2:
      Am                        
  The beams and bridges cut the

light on the ground

  Into little triangles and the

  Coffee    color of her skin

gate
                  F
  In front of the ironbound school 
yard


VERSE 3:
  Am                  Am7
  Kids will grow like weeds on a 
fence
                F                  
  She says they look for the light 
     Fadd9
they try to make sense
       Am                          
  They come up through the cracks, 
     Am7
like grass on the tracks
  F                     Fadd9
    She touches him goodbye


CHORUS 2:

     Steps off the curb and into 
   Em
the street
                F                 
  The blood and feathers near her

  The clouds so low the morning so

  As the wires cut through the sky


CHORUS 3:
  Em                  F           
     She stops at the stall, 
       Em
fingers the ring
            F              Em
