Verse 1
(G major) Everybody's intent on killing someone
The streets are closed
and there's a kid on the run
The (B minor) bullets stream out from gun (C major) to gun
Every (G major) body's intent on being someone
The cold and darkness
of a criminal dawn
Wrapped in blankets
gotta keep ourselves warm
A (B minor) child in the arms of a (C major) teenage mom
Who'll (E minor) be there, (C major) who'll (G major) be the next victim
(F major) On the criminal dorm (C major)
Old (G major) friends meet on the (E flat major) edge of town
Chatting, (C major) conversations broken
(C minor) Thing (E flat major) s will soon get bet (F major) ter
while the (G major) children meet
Got the (E flat major) world at their feet
Not knowing what's (C major) around the corner
Are we (C minor) (E flat major) living for an
uncertain future? (F major) (G major)
Down in the corner sits a broken man
Lives a kind of bottled
stress never again
Lost (B minor) his money on (C major) the dogs and gin
Look (G major) s for his supper in a garbage can
Kids hang around by the old
school ground
Right by the river where
the body was found
Throw (B minor) ing stones on
hal (C major) lowed ground
Who'll (E minor) be there, (C major) who'll be the next (G major) victim
Of (F major) the criminal dawn? (C major)
(G major) Old friends meet on the (E flat major) edge of town
Shar (C major) ing conversations hop (C minor) ing
Thing (E flat major) s will soon get bet (F major) ter
While their (G major) children meet
God can (E flat major) walk on their feet
Not knowing (C major) what's around the corner
(C minor) A real (E flat major) living thought and a certain future
Girl, (F major) (E minor) can (E flat major) you hear
them calling? (F major) (G major) (B minor)
(C major) (G major)
In the cold and darkness
of a criminal dawn
Wrapped in blankets,
gotta keep us oats warm
A (B minor) child in the arms of a (C major) teenage mom
Who (E minor) will be there,
(C major) who will be (G major) the last victim
Of (F major) the criminal thorn? (C major)
(G major) Old friends meet on the (E flat major) edge of town
Shar (C major) ing conversation, (C minor) hoping
things will (G minor) soon get better
While (F major) our (G major) children meet,
we've got a world (E flat major) at hand
Not knowing (C major) what's around the corner (C minor)
Or (E flat major) liv ing for themselves and future (F minor)
(F major) Old (G major) friends meeting on
the (E flat major) edge of town
Sharing (C major) conversation, hoping
thing (C minor) s will soon (E flat major) get bet (F major) ter
While their (G major) children meet,
got the world (E flat major) at their feet
Not knowing what's (C major) around the corner
I'm (C minor) only (E flat major) here for
an execution (F major) (G major)
(C major) (G major)
