Asus4 G/F x2

[Verse 1]
     Asus4
I was  bruised and battered I couldn't tell what I felt
       G/F
I was  unrecognizable to myself
        Asus4
saw my  reflection in a window and didn't know my own face
   G/F
oh brother  are you gonna leave me wasting away
                  G          G/F
on the streets of Philadelphia

 G    G/F   A7sus4

              Asus4
I walked  the avenue 'til my legs felt like stone
         G/F
I heard  voices of friends vanished and gone
            Asus4
At night I  hear the blood in my veins
         G/F
just as  black and whispery in the rain

                  G            G/F     A7sus4
on the streets of Philadelphia

                  G            G/F     A7sus4
on the streets of Philadelphia


[Chorus]
G                    G/F
Ain't no angel gonna greet me
  G                           Asus4
It's just you and I my friend
C#
and my clothes don't fit me no more
A7sus4
I walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin

[Verse 2]
Asus4
The night is falling, I'm lying awake
       G/F
I can  feel my self fading away
   Asus4
so receive me brother with your fateless kiss or
         G/F
will we  leave each other alone like this
                   G            G/F  A7sus4
on the streets of Philadelphia...

                  G            G/F  A7sus4
on the streets of Philadelphia...
