C D Em
I was walking around, just a face in the crowd try to keep myself out of the rain
C D Em
Saw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam crown wondered if I might end up the same
C D Em C D Em
There's a man out on the corner, singing old songs about change everybody got their cross to bare, these days
C D Em
She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams
C D Em
To a motel room on the boulevard I guess she's trying to be james dean
C D Em C D Em
She's seen all the disciples and all the 'wanna be's' no one wants to be themselfs these days
C D G
Still there's nothing to hold on to but these days
C D Em C D G
These days the stars ain't out of reach - these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no
C D G C D G
These days are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age - there ain't nobody left but us these days
Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly
From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes
His momma said he was crazy - he said momma "I've got to try" don't you know that all my heroes died
And I guess I rather die f f f fade away - yeah
C D Em C D G
These days the stars ain't out of reach but these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no
C D G C D Em
These days are fast, nothing lasts it's a graceless age - even innocence has caught the midnight train
C D G
There ain't nobody left but us these days
( C Am C Am )

I know rome's still burning though the times have changed
C Am D C
This world keeps turning round and round and round and round these days
[Solo] C G D
These days the stars ain't out of reach but these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no
These days are fast, nothing lasts it's a graceless age - even innocence has caught the midnight train
These days the stars ain't out of reach but these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no
These days are fast, nothing last there ain't no time to waste - there ain't nobody left to take the blame
C D G
There ain't nobody left but us these days
