Intro:  , ,  ,  , (X2)

Verse I:
Sirens [E] ring,   shots rang [B] out,  
A stranger [F#m] cries,...    screams out [A] loud,
I had my [E] world,...    strapped against my [B] back,
I held my [F#m] hands,...   never  knew  [A] how  to act,

chorus:   
Well the [E] same black line that was drawn on you 
was [B] drawn on me,       and now its drawn me [F#m] in,
6th avenue [A] heartache

Solo:  ,  ,  ,  ,

Verse II:
Below  [E] me,      was a homeless [B] man,
I'm singing [F#m] songs,...     I knew com-[A] plete,
On the steps [E] alone,....    his guitar in [B] hand,
his 50 [F#m] years,....     he stood where he [A] stands,

Repeat Chorus Twice: 

Solo:   ,  ,  ,  , 

verse III:
Now I'm walking [E] home,...    on those [B] streets, 
the river [F#m] winds,....    move my  [A]  feet
The subway [E] steam,....    like silhouettes in [B] dreams,
Stood by [F#m] me,...... [stood by me]  just like moon-[A] beams,

Repeat Chorus Twice

Solo: ,  ,  ,   (X2)

Verse IV:      
Look out the [E] window,   down upon that [B] street,
Gone like at [F#m] midnight,   was, that [A] man,
but I see his [E] six strings,..   layed against that [B] wall,   
and all his [F#m] things,.... they all look so [A] small,
I got my fingers [E] crossed,...  on  a shooting [B] star
just like [F#m] me,.....    just moved,  [A]   just moved on

Chorus: ,  , ,  , (repeat)
