{Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
C G When you're lost in the rain, in Juarez, and it's Easter time too C G When your gravity fails, and negativity don't pull you through C G Don't put on any airs when you're down on Rue Morgue Avenue D C G They got some hungry women there and they really make a mess out of you
[Verse 2]
C G If you see Saint Annie, please tell her thanks a lot C G I cannot move my fingers, they are all in a knot C G I haven't got the strength to get up and take another shot D C G And my best friend, the doctor, won't even say what it is I've got
[Verse 3]
C G Sweet Melinda, the peasants call her the goddess of gloom C G She speaks good English, and she invites you up into her room C G And you're so kind and careful not to go to her too soon D C G And she takes your voice, and leaves you howling at the moon
[Verse 4]
C G Up on housing project hill, it's either fortune or fame
You can pick one or the other
C G Though neither of them ought to be what they claim C G And if you're looking to get silly, you better go back to from where you came D C G 'Cause the cops don't need you, and man, they expect the same
[Verse 5]
C G Now all the authorities, they just stand around and boast C G How they blackmailed the sergeant at arms into leaving his post C G And picking up Angel, who just arrived here from the coast D C G Who looked so fine at first, but left looking just like a ghost
[Verse 6]
C G I started out on burgundy, but soon hit the harder stuff C G Everybody said they'd stand behind me when the game got rough C G But the joke was one me, there was nobody there to even bluff D C G I'm going back to New York City, I do believe I've had enough
