Tom: A
D A E A X 2
D A E A
I live in the quarters they call it skid row
D A E A
We all share the kitchen, one room is my home
D A D A
This uniforms pride is worn out like my own
D A E A
Still I use it to hide in, 8 hours til' home
[Chorus]
E A
And I think about, how it could have been better.
E A
I can see children, a family togeather.
D A
But now all I know, is an endless tomorrow.
E D A
So I reach for the bottle in a room I call home.
D A E A
I carry my key watching over the yard
D A E A
Some do it easy and some do it hard.
D A D A
Once I was certain, but now I can see.
D A E A
There's not a whole lot of difference between them and me.
[Chorus]
D A
Some nights I fear
E
I'll be walking the landings
In the life after here. (pause)
[Chorus]
E A
And I think about, how it could have been better.
E A
I can see children, a family togeather.
D
But now I'm all alone
A
and I'm drowning in sorrow
E A
So I reach for the bottle
E D A
Yeah I reach for the bo--ttle in a room I call home
