Skid Row chords by Panic! At The Disco

Guitar chords with lyrics

Bb
Alarm goes off at seven
         Gm
And you start uptown
    Dm
You put in your eight hours
        Cm               F      Bb          Gm
For the powers that have always been
                 Cm  F
Till it's five p. m


Then you go
Bb
Downtown
Where the folks are broke
       Dm
You go downtown
🎸
Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
Where your life's a joke
       Eb
You go downtown
                             Gm  F
When you buy your token, you go
             Bb
Home to skid row
              Gm  F
(Home to skid row)

Yes, you go
Bb
Downtown
Where the cabs don't stop
Dm
Downtown

Where the food is slop
Eb
Downtown
                                Gm  F
Where the hop-heads flop in the snow
             Bb
Down on skid row
    Gm
Oh, uptown you cater to a million jerks
Uptown you're messengers and mailroom clerks
Cm
Eating all your lunches at the hot dog carts
    F
The bosses take your money and they break your hearts
Gm
Uptown you cater to a million whores
You disinfect terrazzo on their bathroom floors
    Cm
The jobs are really menial you make no bread
    Gm                       F
And then at five-o'clock you head
By subway
Bb
Downtown
Where the guys are drips
Dm
Downtown
Where they rip your slips
Eb
Downtown
                           Gm  F
Where relationships are no go
             Bb
Down on skid row
Down on skid row
             Gm
Down on skid row
Down on skid row
             Eb
Down on skid
Down on skid row
             Cm  F
Down on skid row!
G                                  Eb
Poor, all my life I've always been poor
                           Gm
I keep askin' god what I'm for
                              F
And he tells me: Gee, I'm not sure
Dm         F
Sweep that floor, kid!
Cm                       Gm
Oh! I started life as an orphan
                                         Cm
A child of the street, down here on skid row!
                       Gm
He took me in, gave me shelter
                F#m              F
A bed, crust of bread and a job
                        Em
He treats me like dirt, calls me a slob
        F
Which I am

So I live
Bb
Downtown
That's your home address, you live
Dm
Downtown
When your life's a mess, you live
Eb
Downtown
                               Gm  F
Where depression's just status quo

Down on skid row
Bb
Someone show me a way to get outta here
Dm
'Cause I constantly pray I'll get outta here
Eb
Please won't somebody say I'll get outta here
Bb                    F
Someone gimmie my shot, or I'll rot here!
Bb
(Downtown)
(There's no rules for us) show me how and I will, I'll get outta here
Dm
(Downtown)
('Cause it's dangerous) I'll start climbin' up hill and get outta here
Eb
(Downtown)
                                  Gm    F
(Where there rainbow just doesn't show)
Someone tell me I still could get outta here
Someone tell lady luck that I'm stuck here!
Bb
Gee it sure would be swell to get outta here
Dm
Bid the gutter farewell and get outta here
Eb
I'd move heaven and hell to get outta skid
Gm                      F
I'd do I don't know what to get outta skid

Bb
(Downtown)
But a hell of a lot to get outta skid
Dm
(Downtown)
People tell me there's not a way outta skid
Eb
(Downtown)
But believe me I gotta get outta skid
Bb
