Shawn Colvin - Suicide alley

^A#Wait for me by the ^Cbanshee tree ^A#Let me be your wailing comp^Canion ^A#Pass 'em on by, don't ^Clook 'em in the eye ^A#Suicide Alley is ^Ccallin'

You ^Fthought you were dreaming You could ^Cwake up dead And you'll ^Gnever know what's real ^FAll this damage is runnin' ^Cloose in your head And it ^Greally matters to me

^F5Oh, no, ^Cbaby don't go ^A#Walkin' down ^FSuicide ^CAlley

^A#Downtown baby it's a ^Cmillion to one You ^A#might as well name your p^Coison And ^A#stand in line by the ^Cexit sign ^A#Suicide Alley is ^Cwaiting

You're a ^Floose cannonball on a ^Csinking ship From the ^Gbelly of the beast, shot from the hip But you ^Fdon't have to be going ^Cdown the dark hall You're not ^Gtied to the chair, you're not nailed to the wall

^F5Oh, no, ^Cbaby don't go ^A#Walkin' down ^FSuicide ^CAlley

Sitting ^A#naked by the window in the ^Cmiddle of the night ^A#I can see you wearing your ^Chalo If ^A#only in the daybreak of the dir^Cty street light I know ^A#baby wasn't born to ^Cfollow

You know ^FI wasn't born I was ^Cspat out at a wall And ^Gnobody even knew my name The ^Fsun hatched me out, ^Ccradle and all On the ^Gcorner of First and Insane

For the ^Fsouls of the departed and the ^Crenegades of love ^GYou and me we gotta be all we dreamed of In the ^Fruins of mischief through the ^Cravages of time ^GYou got a place in this world of mine

^F5Oh, no, ^Cbaby don't go ^A#Walkin' down ^FSuicide ^CAlley
