[Verse]
G# D#
I can't say that I love this place where I live
A#m C#
This particular geographical location but I've grown use to it
G# D#
And now I miss it when I'm away, of course when I was a kid
A#m C#
My father would take me with him down to the bowery where the bums where
G# D#
And in the restaurants supply stores he would buy shiny steel refrigerators
A#m C#
And deadly looking stoves
G# D#
While I begged him to take to the army navy surplus stores on canal street
A#m C# G#
to buy big dead bullets
[Verse]
G# D# A#m C#
He wore a short cordury jacket, an informal hat with puff of feather
G# D# A#m C#
And he talked with his hands in his pants pockets jangling change
G# D#
Driving his Cadillac it was Elvis Presley's birthday
A#m C#
They said it on the radio
G# D# A#m C#
My father like Elvis and it was worderful
G#
We drove trough black nieghborhoods
D# A#m C# G#
On Long Island's north shore When Elvis was alive
[Verse]
G# D#
My father was from Brooklyn and the depression left his mark
A#m C#
From picking up coal on the railroad tracks
G# D# A#m C#
He didn't have a good word to say about Franklin Delano Roosvelt
G# D#
Later I liked elegant hotel bars
A#m C#
where I could drink under F. Scott Fitzgerald Skies
G# D# A#m C#
The coolest of the cool, never a child on Elvis Presley's birthday's
G# D# A#m C#
My dead father jangling change
[Outro]
G# D# A#m C#
This is an unreal City, you can be anybody when you're alone
[Ending]
