Am C
As I walk along these streets
G D (cont.for the rest of the verse)
I see a man that walks alone
Distant echo of peoples feet
He has no place to call his own
A shot rings out from a roof overhead
A crackhead asks for change nearby
An old man lies in an alleyway dead
A little girl lost just stands there and cries
Am C G D
What would you do, if it was you
Am C
Would you take everything
G D
For granted like you do
and basically repeat for the rest of the song!
A boy just 13 on the corner for sale
Swallows his pride for another hit
Overpopulation theres no room in jail
But most of you dont give a shit
That your daughters are porno stars
And your sons sell death to kids
Youre so lost in your little worlds
Your little worlds youll never fix
What would you do, if it was you
Would you take everything
For granted like you do
You turn away
As I walk along the streets
Soaking up the acid rain
Underneath the taxi cabs
I hear the streets cry out in vain
What would you do, if it was you
Would you take everything
For granted like you do
