Intro: A Bm

Verse
Al[A]l my day[D]dreams are dis[A]asters
Sh[A]e's the [D]one, I think I[A] love
Ri[A]vers b[F#m]urn, men run b[D]ackwards
And for [A]her, that's e[D]nough

Th[A]ey all c[D]ome from New Yo[A]rk City
Th[A]ey woke [D]me up at da[A]wn
S[A]he wa[F#m]lked with me to [D]the fountain
She he[A]ld onto my arm[D]

Chorus
C[A]'mon do what you did
R[D]oll me under [Bm]New Madrid
S[D]hake my baby and please bring her [E]back
H[A]is death won't even be still
C[D]arum's over the [Bm]landfill
B[D]uries us all in[E] it's broken b[A]ack

Verse (same chords as first verse)

There's a man conviction

And although he's getting old

Mr. Browning has a prediction

We've all been told

So come on back to New York City

Roll your trucks in at dawn

Walk with me to the fountain

And hold onto my arm

Chorus
last chorus ends like this


D - E - A - F# - D - E - A


there is a common walk up pattern used throughout (usually when
moving from the A to D). It goes 0-2-4 (on A string a-b-c#) to D
