6th Avenue Heartache

The Wallflowers

"6th Avenue heartache"

verse I:

 

Sirens ring. shots rang out. A stranger cries screams out loud.

I had my world strapped against my back. I held my hands

never knew how to act.

Well the same black line that was drawn on you

was drawn on me and now its drawn me in.

6th avenue heartache

verse II:

_____? (your guess is as good as mine)

There was a homeless man. was singing a songs I knew complete

On the steps alone his guitar in hand

his 50 years he stood where he stands

 

verse III:

Walking home on those streets

the river winds move my feet

The subway steam like silhouettes in dreams

Stood by me [stood by me] just like moonbeams

 

Verse IV:

Look out the window. Down up on that street

I am gone like at midnight words that mend

but I sit Here with six strings

layed against that wall and all his things

they all look so small

I got my fingers crossed on a shooting star

just like me just moved -?-

chorus: F C G Bb (repeat)
