Verse 1
G
C
When you're lost in the rain in Juarez
G
D
G
when it's Easter time, too
Dm
G
And your gravity fails and negativ
C
G
ity don't pull you through
C
Don't put on any airs when you're
G
down on Rue Morgue Avenue
D
They got some hungry women there and they
C
G
Gm
really make a mess outta you
G
Now, if you see Saint Annie,
C
G
please tell her thanks a lot
C
G
I cannot move, my fingers are all in a knot
C
I don't have the strength to get
G
up and take another shot
D
And my be st friend, my doctor,
C
G
won't even say what it is I've got
Sweet Melinda,
C
G
the peasants call her the goddess of gloom
She speaks good English and she
C
G
invites you up into her room
C
And you're so kind and careful
G
not to go to her too soon
D
C
And she takes your voice and leaves
D
G
you howling at the moon
Up on Housing Project Hill,
C
G
it's either fortune or fame
You must pick one or the other,
C
though neither of them
G
are to be what they claim
C
If you're lookin' to get silly,
you better go back to from
G
where you came
D
Because the cops don't need you,
C
G
and man, they expect the same
C
G
Now, all the authorities,
C
G
C
G
they just stand around and boast
How they blackmailed the sergeant-
C
G
at- arms into leaving his post
C
And picking up Angel,
G
who just arrived here from the coast
D
Who looked so fine at first but
C
G
left looking just like a ghost
D
G
I started out on burgundy but
C
G
soon hit the harder stuff
Everybody said they'd stand behind
C
G
me when the game got rough
C
But the joke was on me,
G
D
C
G
there was nobody even there to bluff
D
I'm going back to New York City,
C
G
I do believe I've had enough
