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