INTRO:
Am Am7
F Fadd9
VERSE 1:
Am Am7 In the ironbound section near Avenue L F Fadd9 Where the Portuguese women come to see what you sell Am Am7 The clouds so low the morning so slow F Fadd9 As the wires cut through the sky
VERSE 2:
Am Am7 The beams and bridges cut the light on the ground F Fadd9 Into little triangles and the rails run round Am Am7 Through the rust and the heat the light and sweet F Fadd9 Coffee color of her skin
CHORUS 1:
Em F Em Bound up in wire and fate F Em Watching her walk him up to the gate F In front of the ironbound school yard
VERSE 3:
Am Am7 Kids will grow like weeds on a fence F Fadd9 She says they look for the light they try to make sense Am Am7 They come up through the cracks, like grass on the tracks F Fadd9 She touches him goodbye
CHORUS 2:
Em F Em Steps off the curb and into the street F Em The blood and feathers near her feet F Into the ironbound market
INTERLUDE:
Am C G C
VERSE 4:
Am Am7 In the ironbound section near Avenue L F Fadd9 Where the Portuguese women come to see what you sell Am Am7 The clouds so low the morning so slow F Fadd9 As the wires cut through the sky
CHORUS 3:
Em F Em She stops at the stall, fingers the ring F Em Opens her purse, feels a longing F Away from the ironbound border
INTERLUDE:
Am C G C (play 4x)
