[Primeira Parte]

       C2              
I was walking around
        D2        
Just a face in the crowd 
        Em9
Try to keep myself out of the rain
       C2        
Saw a vagabond king wear 
      D2 
A styrofoam crown wondered 
Em9
If I might end up the same
           C2             D2      
There's a man out on the corner 
 Em9                C2
Singing old songs about change 
                      D2   
Everybody got their cross to bare 
       G
These days

[Segunda Parte]

          C2                D2 
She came looking for some shelter 
        Em9
With a suitcase full of dreams
      C2                D2   
To a motel room on the boulevard 
                Em9
I guess she's trying to be james dean
       C2              D2  
She's seen all the disciples 
    Em9             C2    
And all the 'wanna be's' 
                 D                  Em9
No one wants to be themselfs these days
               C2 
Still there's nothing 
        D2          G
To hold on to but these days

[Refrão]

       C9        D/F#              Em7    
These days the stars ain't out of reach 
  C9             D/F# 
These days there ain't a ladder 
            G
From the streets oh no no
       C9    
These days are fast
 D9                G/B          C9 
Nothing lasts in this graceless age 
                    D9           G
There ain't nobody left but us these days

[Terceira Parte]

        C2               D2   
Jimmy shoes busted both his legs
  Em9
Trying to learn to fly
        C2           D2 
From a second story window
         Em9
He just jumped and closed his eyes
     C2                 D2 
His momma said he was crazy 
         Em9                 C9  
He said momma "I've got to try" 
                    D              Em9
Don't you know that all my heroes died
        C2            D2            G
And I guess I rather die f f f fade away yeah

C         Am        
  I know rome's still burning 
C             Am
  Though the times have changed
C       Am                  D 
  This world keeps turning round 
 
And round and round and round these days
