Music City Busker chords by Lost Dog Street Band

verse 1
             D
Well I never asked
      Bm
To be born, no
            G                  A
But I carry on with my sad old song
                   D
Just like the year before
           D
And when I pray
              Bm
Lord it?s for freedom
                  G            A
To come and carry me on broken dreams
                   D
To a world worth a livin in

     G                         Fm7
Said kid I feel like I?m going nowhere
           Bm                                 G
and I been beaten down like a rusted railroad spike
G                                     D              Bm
Said oh this town?s full of liars and lord I?ve been defeated
        G
But you stay here kid
        A              D
And you keep this town alive

verse 2
              D
Well I try to be
          Bm
A sincere man
           G                  A
Someone to hold when life?s control
               D
Falls out your hands

           D
But lord I know
             Bm
I?ve let you down
                  G                    A
I?ll always walk away at the same slow pace
              D
Starin at the ground

     G                         Fm7
Said kid I feel like I?m going nowhere
           Bm                                 G
and I been beaten down like a rusted railroad spike
G                                     D              Bm
Said oh this town?s full of liars and lord I?ve been defeated
        G
But you stay here kid
        A              D
And you keep this town alive

verse 3
                   D
And the big bright lights
              Bm
Down in music city
           G                       A
Fall incomplete it?s what?s in the street
                D
That gave music meaning

          D
So as for me,
                     Bm
Lord I?ll take em or leave em
          G                 A
No masquerade or funeral parade
                    D
For some rich guy?s children

     G                         Fm7
Said kid I feel like I?m going nowhere
           Bm                                 G
and I been beaten down like a rusted railroad spike
G                                      D           Bm
Said oh this town?s full of actors and I guess I'm leavin'
        G
But you stay here kid
        A              D
And you keep this town alive
