[Intro]
G F C
[Verse]
When you're lost in the rain in JuaFrez
When it's Easter time Ctoo
CAnd your gravity fails
And negaFtivity don't pull you Cthrough
Don't Fput on any airs
When you're down on Rue Morgue AveCnue
They got Gsome hungry women there
They'll Freally make a mess outta Cyou
[Verse]
CWell, if you see sweet Annie
FPlease tell her "Thanks a Clot"
CI cannot move
And my Ffingers, they are all in a Cknot
I Fhaven't got the strength
To get up and take another Cshot
And my Gbest friend, the doctor
FHe won't even say what I've Cgot
[Verse]
CSweet Melinda
The Fpeasants call the Goddess of CGloom
CShe speaks good English
And she inFvites you up into her Croom
And Fyou're so kind and careful
Not to go to her too Csoon
And she Gtakes your voice
And Fleaves you howling at the Cmoon
[Instrumental]

F[VerseC] G F C
Well, the blind using projectile F
It's either fortune or Cfame
CYou can pick one or the other
Though Fneither of them are to be what they Cclaim
And If you're Flookin' to get silly
You had better go back to from where you Ccame
Because the Gcops don't need you
And Fman, they expect the Csame
[Verse]
CNow all the authorities
FThey just stand around and Cboast
CHow they blackmailed the Sergeant-Major
FInto just leaving his Cpost
And Fpicking up Angel
Who just arrived here from the Ccoast
Who looked so Gfine at first
I Fleave here lookin' just like a Cghost
[Verse]
CWell, I started out on Burgundy
But Fsoon hit the harder Cstuff
CEverybody said they'd stand beside me
FEven when the game gotC rough
Then you Fknow the joke was on me
There was nobody even there to Cbluff
I'm going Gback to New York City
I Fdo believe I've had eCnough
