G Cadd9 G
There's gotta be a better place than bourbon street on a Friday
G Cadd9 G
She don't want hand grenades or hurricanes
G Cadd9 G
Got had by a shoe shiner just to hear his speech
G Cadd9
Now every time they ask her where she got those shoes
G Cadd9 G
She says "I got them right here on my feet"
[Bridge]
G Cadd9 G
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9 G
In a dive bar off the boulevard down an alleyway
G Cadd9 G
She smiles and I can tell this is what she's talking about
G Cadd9 G
And the brothers gathered round the jukebox she said "I'm just passing through"
G Cadd9
Put a quarter in and played her song
G
The whole damn room approved
Am Cadd9
They like her style
G Cadd9 G
and I do too
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
You don't want fake rain while you're sleeping
Cadd9 G
You don't want the praise when you lose
Cadd9 G
Beneath the streets, between the houses
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
All you want is a little truth
[Bridge]
G Cadd9 G
[Verse 3]
G Cadd9 G
East side of the village up in New York City
G Cadd9 G
Late nights running round trying to find the underground
G Cadd9 G
Hidden bars and speakeasies - convinced there's another world
G Cadd9
Of things we're missing out on
G Am Cadd9
And all you want is to unfurl to the wind
G
Blow the roof off this whole town
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
You don't want fake rain while you're sleeping
Cadd9 G
You don't want the praise when you lose
Cadd9 G
Beneath the streets, between the houses
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
All you want is a little truth
[Solo]
Cadd9 G (x4)
G Cadd9 G (x2)
[Verse 4]
G Cadd9 G
And I want to say I admire how you go
G Cadd9 G
Seeing all the best in everyone
G Cadd9 G
Between the houses and the billboard signs
G Cadd9 G
All we want is a little truth
G Cadd9 G
All we want is a little truth
