Ridin' Out The Storm Lyrics

The New York City winter comes in cold

grey sheets of steel
Em

The numbness in his hands and

feet is all that he can feel
Am
F

Alcohol and sterno turns
C

a doorway to a bed
Verse 2
C

And the ghost of who he might have
G
Am

been lives on inside his head
C

In a canyon made of brownstone

on a sidewalk icy black
Em

He wanders nearly barefoot

with his righteousness in tact
Am
F

A man of many mansions in a
C

cardboard box replete
Verse 3
C

He lies sleeping with an angel while
G
Am

his heart pretends to beat
F

The wind blows down on Lonely Street

like an ice pick through the air
Am

Midst the Sunday times and coffee

grinds and wino's in Times Square
F

Five flights up on Easy Street you
C

know she's safe and warm
Verse 4
C

Way down low neath a foot of snow
G
A
Am

he's riding out the storm
C

I offered him my winter coat

politely he refused
Em

Like an educated man he spoke

with words I seldom use
Am
F

He said I don't need pity for
C

these choices are my own
Verse 5
C
G

He bowed his head just slightly and quietly moved along
Am

Its not like he's a victim of the

homeless life he stalks

Nor helpless to get back across

the fine line that he walks

Riding out the storm means yester

Tomorrow don't mean nothing it won't even make a dent

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
