D (follow picking pattern)						   G      C G
This crumpled dollar bill in my back pocket reminds me I had twenty

D 									  G    C  G
What somebody said to someone you^?d think that worries him

D   								G       C   G
Laid out on the newsstands or even sinful publications

Em						C                  G       F  A
See the haze on commonplace streets, you^?re back here again

So we walk on commonplace streets Taking time no one seems to notice
Outside you^?re all smiles when inside I know you^?re hurtin^?
