    Em                                                G

1.     People living their lives for you on TV,

                              - D                                - A

    they say they're      better than you and         you agree.

Em                                                   G

    She says, "Hold my calls," from behind those cold, brick walls,

                    D                                         A

    there’s "Come here, boy, there ain't nothin' for free."

Em                                      G

    Another burger, another hot dog, some fries,

        D                                          A

    a wish in the well, hope your health don't go to hell, well.

 Em                                    G                                                    D

    Another doctor's bill, a lawyer's bill, another cute cheap thrill,

                                                     A

    you know you love him, if you put him in your will,  but :

 

Em               G             D                   A

    Who will save your soul, when it comes to the flowers ?

Em                                    G              D                      

    Whoyoo, whoyoo, will save your soul

                           A

    after all those lies that you told, boy?

Em                     G              D                 A

    And who will save your souls if you won't save your own?

    Em                      G               D    -  A

    La di di da di di, da la da di die.

 

   Em                                             G

2.     We try to hustle them, try to bustle them, try to cuss them,

             D                                                       A

     the cops want someone to bust down on Orleans Avenue.

Em                                   G

    Another day, another dollar, another war,

                  D                                      A

    another tower went up where the homeless had their homes.

Em                                      G

    So we pray to as many diff'rent gods,

                          D                              A

    as there are flowers, but we call religion our friend.

 

 

 

 

Em                                      G

    We're so worried about saving our souls,

                        D                                              A

    afraid that God will take his toll that we forget to begin. But :

3.     Some are walking, some are talking, some are stalking their kill,

                                                  A

    got social security, but that don't pay your bills.

                        Em                                          - G

    There are addictions to feed and there are     mouths to pay,

                D                                                    A

    so you bargain with the devil, but you're OK for today.

           - Em                                                   G

    Say         that you love them, take their money and run,

                    D                                                    A                        

    say, "It's been swell, sweetheart, but it was just one of those

     Em                                                       G

    things, those flings, those strings you got to cut,

                D                                           A            Em

    so get out on the streets, girls, and bust your butts."
