I'm just arriving in the city and there's music on my mind,
        D                         G                  D         D
looking for my destination and my home is far behind.
             G    F     D                G       F      D
Cause it's a long road ahead and you can make it in the end
                 G       F       D               C          Bb
and I'm going to make it with my friends and I'm trying.

It took me sometime to see it, now I'm looking through this world
         D                                G                      D     D
and it's going to take some time before I get back, help me, girl.
              G       F      D               G      F      D
Cause you can make it if you try, you got to lay it on the line
         G     F       D           C          Bb         N.C.
and everything will be fine if you try.

Sitting smoking just a thinking is an easy thing to do.
         D                      G                       D        D
We gotta keep on trying for the feeling to come through.
           G      F      D                G            F      D
And it's a lonely way to live, you got to take it, you got to give.
          G             F    D            C       Bb
