[Intro] F#m A Bm D
F#m A Bm D
F#m A Bm D
Beat-up little seagull
F#m A Bm D
On a marble stair
F#m A Bm D
Tryin' to find the ocean
F#m A Bm D
Lookin' everywhere
F#m A Bm D
Hard times in the city
F#m A Bm D
In a hard town by the sea
F#m A Bm D
Ain't nowhere to run to
F#m A Bm D
There ain't nothin' here for free
F#m A Bm D
Hooker on the corner
F#m A Bm D
Waitin' for a train
F#m A Bm D
Drunk lyin' on the sidewalk
F#m A Bm D
Sleepin' in the rain
F#m A Bm D
And they hide their faces
F#m A Bm D
And they hide their eyes
F#m A Bm D
'Cause the city's dyin'
F#m A Bm F#
And they don't know why
D7+ E7+ C#m7
Oh, Baltimore
D7+ E7+ C#m7
Man, it's hard just to live
D7+ E7+ C#m7
Oh, Baltimore
D7+ E7+ C#7
Man, it's hard just to live, just to live
( F#m A Bm D )
F#m A Bm D
Get my sister Sandy
F#m A Bm D
And my little brother Ray
F#m A Bm D
Buy a big old wagon
F#m A Bm D
Gonna haul us all away
F#m A Bm D
Livin' in the country
F#m A Bm D
Where the mountain's high
F#m A Bm D
Never comin' back here
F#m A Bm D
'Til the day I die
D7+ E7+ C#m7
Oh, Baltimore
D7+ E7+ C#m7
Man, it's hard just to live
D7+ E7+ C#m7
Oh, Baltimore
D7+ E7+ C#7
Man, it's hard just to live, just to live
( F#m A Bm D )
