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