I don't have much money or a place to sleep
      F#m*                           C#m  
I've found me some friends and been awake all week
   A*                           F#m  
I crawl out and try and find my way home
   A*                            F#m  
I beg for some change beside the pay phone
          F#m*                    C#m  
I'm gonna take her away from this big bad world
     F#m*                  C#m  
She calls me a dreamer, I call her my girl
     A*                       F#m  
But she can't stand to see my face, no

The flats we used to hide in now don't seem so tall
