When you're
lost in the rain
G
D
G
D
In Juarez and it's Easter time too
When you're gravity's down
G
D
And negativity won't pull you through

When you're down on Rue

They got some hungry creatures there

Surely make a mess out of you

G

Please tell her, "thanks a lot"
My hair was twisted
G

I don't even have the strength
To get up and crawl across

The floor for another shot

And my best friend, my drummer
Won't even tell me
G
D
What it was that I dropped
Verse 3

Yeah, sweet Melinda
G
The peasants call her the

Goddess of Gloom
She has, speaks good English

As she invites you up into her room
G
And you, you were so kinda conscientious

Not to go to her too soon
A
But she steals your voice
G
And leaves you howling at the
D
moon

Up on Housing Project Hill

It's either fortune or fame
You must choose one or the other

If you're looking to get silly
You better get back to

Because the cops don't need you ever
G
And they expect the same
D

I started out on Heineken
G

But I soon hit the harder stuff
Everybody swore they

When the game got rough
G
But the joke was on me
There wasn't even

anybody there to bluff
A
I'm goin' back to New York City
G
I do believe I've had enough
