Intro: Em C G

     Em       C               G
This pavement feels cold on my face
       Em         C           G
And my bones have seen better days
     Em      C                  G
Be a friend, pick me up off the ground
         Em   C    G
Nice and easy, oooh
        Em            C            G
I got a scar, you can see it from afar
               Em           C            G
Like cigarette burns on the top of my guitar
               Em          C                  G
If you wish me luck, don't tell me to break a leg
              Em     C     G
I coulda been walking on a peg

           D                     C                      G
And at the end of the day I will return to the city of lakes
          D                         C                        G
Where the real people roam close to where all the real waves break

        Em    C               G
I got a girl, she got lots of style
                  Em           C              G
You can see every tooth in her mouth when she smiles
                    Em       C        G
She's prettier than you, and you, and you
               Em         C       G
Yeah, she's prettier than you
        Em       C                  G
I got a dream, I hope that it comes true
          Em                C              G
And if it don't, don't know what I'm gonna do
     Em   C  G   Em     C    G
I got a dream, I got a dream

           D                     C                      G
And at the end of the day I will return to the city of lakes
          D                         C                        G
Where the real people roam close to where all the real waves break

(single strum)
         Em     C            G
I lost a friend in this past year
              Em  C             G
I miss his guitar playing in my ear
     Em      C              G
Be a friend, take away all my fears
   Em      C  G  Em      C   G  Em       C  G
Nice and easy, nice and easy, nice and easy

Then just Em C G for the amount of time that you feel necessary!
