[Intro]
C Am Fm C
Am D Dm G7
[Verse]
C Am
His hands they shake as he grips the door
Fm C
Of a burned out neon liquor store
Am D
These days it's taking more and more
G G7
To get him through the night
C Am
On a park bench off of Lincoln Street
Fm C
He ties his backpack to his feet
Am D
Just a shadow of who he used to be
Dm G7
He stares up at the sky
[Chorus]
F G C
And ain't that life in the big city
Am F
People walk by saying ain't it a pity
G C
But he's got a father, he's got a mother
Am F F
He's got a sister and that's my brother
G
Yeah that's my brother
C Am Fm C
Mmmm mmmmm
[Verse]
C Am
The needle and the damage done
Fm C
It has its way with anyone
Am D
Freedom is a setting sun
G G7
That went down long ago
C Am
There isn't much that I can say
Fm C
But if I could take the pain away
Am D
I'd take a trip to yesterday
Dm G7
And never let him go
[Chorus]
F G C
But ain't that life in the big city
Am F
People walk by saying ain't it a pity
G C
But he's got a father, he's got a mother
Am F F
He's got a sister and that's my brother
G
Yeah that's my brother
C D Fm C
Mmmm mmmmm
Am D F F
Ooooh oooh oooh
[Chorus]
F G C
Ain't that life in the big city
Am F
People walk by saying ain't it a pity
G C
But he's got a father, he's got a mother
Am F F
He's got a sister and that's my brother
G
Yeah that's my brother
C Am Fm C
Mmmm mmmmm
[Outro]
Am D Dm G
