SIDEWALKS OF THE CITY (Lucinda Williams)

----------------------------------------

[Each chord is one measure]

G C(9) G C(9)

[intro]

G D Am C

As you walk along the sidewalks of the city

G D Am C

You see a man with hunger in his face

G D Am C

And all around you, crumbling buildings and graffiti

G D Am C

As you bend down to tie your shoelace

Sirens scream, but you don't listen

You have to reach home before night

But now the sun beats down, it makes the sidewalks glisten

And somehow you just don't feel right

G Em7 C(9) G

Hold me, baby, give me some faith

G Em7 C(9) G

Let me know you're there, let me touch your face

G Em7 G Em7

Give me love, give me grace

G C(9) C(9) G C(9) G C(9)

Tell me good things, tell me that my world is safe

You pass by bars with empty stages

Three o'clock drinkers fall by

Chairs are placed on top of tables

As you brush the hair out of your eyes

A woman stops you with a question

So you drop some money in her hand

She sleeps in doorways and bus stations

And you'll never understand

Hold me, baby, give me some faith

Let me know you're there, let me touch your face

Give me love, give me grace

Tell me good things, tell me that my world is safe
