{Verse 1}
G C G I hear the sound of angry fans G I’m walkin’ by, they’re crushing cans Em And throwing them at their sets again A Em You know I’ve heard this thing before D Every year, at least times four G C G It’s a city built on stubs and scars G We swear, “No not next year” Em But led back to the wooder, here we are A Em You know we feed them ‘til they’re packed D Tickertape is way too much to ask
G C G
[Pre-Chorus]
D G C Here in the streets and the dives, you can feel it D G C While back in the stands, swing and miss, you can hear it D G C These seasons are new, zero love, but we fear it
[Verse 2]
G C G C Barb from South Philly calls again G She was just a kid in ‘64 Em A Em But remembers her dad cursing at the same old radio D Now they fold like it’s the only thing they know
G C G
[Pre-Chorus]
D G C Here in the streets and the dives, you can feel it D G C While back in the stands, swing and miss, you can hear it D G C These seasons are new, zero love, but we fear it
[Chorus]
G C Em D I hear the ghosts of Billy Penn G C Em D They’re wailing, “Oh no not again,” G C Em D And talkin’ bout the disappointment that’s on deck C But don’t sleep ‘til it’s over G D G But don’t sleep ‘til it’s over C G D But don’t sleep ‘til it’s over
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
G C G C These arenas are like scenes of a crime G Soft goals and turnovers Em 20,000 grunts turn into sighs A Em D And the national condemns…to hell with them
You know I’d throw snow again
G C G
[Pre-chorus]
D G C Here on the jobs, in the halls, you can feel it D G C While back in the stands, 6-4-3, you can hear it D G C These seasons are new, zero love, and we fear it
[Chorus]
G C Em D I hear the ghosts of Billy Penn G C Em D They’re wailing, “Oh no not again,” G C Em D And talkin’ bout the disappointment that’s on deck C B But don’t sleep ‘til it’s over A D Cause it brings us together G C Em D I hear the ghosts of Billy Penn G C Em D I see your goats and your Bartmans
But don’t worry bout it
G C Em D The piper’s passing out the checks C G From the Bull back to the wall D G To the top of city hall C G We are beaten, full of crow D G But I know I’d never call another home “home.”
