Ezra Furman - Pot holes

^G(x4)^{Em A D D7} [Verse] It's a ^Gbeautiful city We've been ^Emliving in lately Never ^Ago to the South side (Don't you ^Dgo down to the ^D7South side.)

And there's ^Gpot holes Sleeping in the ^Emblack concrete And your ^Alittle rebel rebel's Just a ^Dpebble in a ^D7big stream

Yes, we're ^Gliving underneath a World ^Emimperial empire And it's ^Abuilt on the flimsy web of Your ^Dmoney and your ^D7desire

We ^Gbuilt this city on the ^EmRuins of rock and roll One minute you're ^Adriving on smooth pavement Then you're ^Ddown in a dark ^D7pot hole

And if there's ^Gblack men sleeping on Your ^Emwhite concrete You go and ^Asee a ten dollar movie Then you're ^Dcaught in the web of the ^D7waking dream

^G(x4)^{Em A D D7} [Break] ^G(x4)^{Em A D D7}

It's a ^Gbeautiful city But the ^Emstreets are full of holes I spend my ^Awhole life on the North side (I don't ^Dgo down to the ^D7South side.)

And I ^Gdrive on the concrete And I ^Empay my taxes too And I could ^Awrite a letter to the mayor But we ^Dboth got a lot to ^D7do

And I ad^Gmit it's inconvenient To get ^Emrobbed in a combat zone Well, shit, I ^Ahad to cancel my credit card Had to ^Dbuy me a brand new ^D7phone

But it's a ^Gbeautiful city And the ^Emcops are on our side I mosey ^Adown to check out the Angry mob just to ^Dkeep myself occu^D7pied

And you can ^Gtalk about Chicago You can ^Emtalk about New York You can ^Atalk about London, England You can ^Dhave a nice day, take a ^D7walk in the park

But ^Gthere's always at least two Different ^Emcities in your town And if you ^Acan't look at the dark one Then you'll ^Dspend your life living Down in a ^D7dark pot hole

^G(x8)^{Em A D D7}
