Verse 1
Sometimes (C major) it was quiet enough
to scare you senseless
The streets (A minor) were filthy
Peels of (C major) lemons, limes and orchids
Security tags entangled
in a (A minor) great weave of humanity (E minor) (C major)
(G major) I believe (C major) if you were simply existing
on the west side
You look (A minor) guilty, and you were (G major) guilty
But only (F major) guilty of looking for the (C major) door
I wonder if our species will evolve
to birth our babies
Much more (A minor) able to survive
Like (C major) the baby giraffe
unfolding herself like origami
right from her (A minor) mother's womb
instantly running (G major) from the
waiting (F major) cheetahs
Does she re (C major) member
this first taste of terror in
her new throat?
I know (A minor) I do I am not (G major) angry
It just explain (F major) s why
I (A minor) ended (F major) up on the (C major) west side
So long ago I witnessed a young woman
Find herself in the road
when she shouldn't be
In a (A minor) dan gerous intersection
There (C major) were cars honking at her
She had no memory of how she got there
She was (A minor) not high,
had not taken enough drugs or (G major) whiskey
Cause all it takes is (F major) pain
An overwhelming pain
(C major) And pain knows what to (D minor) do,
go to the (C major) west side
And (G major) oh, what is more (F major) beautiful
than what really (E minor) happened
What truly (D minor) happened
there on the (C major) west side?
One day I feel like butter
And the next I'm
more aligned with a (A minor) knife
You hear me (C major) talking about avoidance,
how it breeds the worst anxiety
Well, I can still (A minor) see the stain,
and remember the (G major) smoke wall
Where no one could (F major) find me
I have (C major) tried to find my way home
Found that trying to find most anything
Leads to (A minor) loneliness
Still I have (C major) tried to find the deep hole
To fall into for the last time
I have (A minor) tried and tried
To find a re (G major) semblance
Resemblance of a (F major) past
Resemblance of a (E minor) past
But there's nothing (D minor) left
Left on the (C major) west side
And (G major) oh, it is more (F major) beautiful
Than what really (E minor) happened
What truly (C major) (D minor) happened
There on the (C major) west side
And (G major) oh, it is more (F major) beautiful
than what really (E minor) happened
What truly (D minor) happened
there on the west side
