[A] [E] [A] [E] [A] [E] [B] [D]
My [A]car broke down in [E]Arizona, [A]have to ride the [E]bus again,
At [A]ten-o-clock on [E]Tuesday night, with [A]thirteen cents and a [E]broken pen.
I [A]put my backpack [E]on a bench, [A]tell two people [E]I don't smoke,
[A]See a cop a[E]cross the street, he [A]thinks that I am [E]selling dope.
[F#]I could have [B]walked a[F#]nother [B]block, to [A]get a[E]way from [A]the [E]scene.
[F#]Why does it [B]always [F#]come to [B]this [A]where the zero [B]meets the fifteen?
And [A]so I gave my [E]thirteen cents [A]to the man who [E]peed his pants.
He [A]passes out and [E]falls on me, I [A]watch my change fall [E]from his hands.
I [A]see the lady [E]next to me, [A]holds her baby [E]black and blue.
The [A]junkie gutter-[E]punks keep asking [A]where I got my [E]new tattoo.
[F#]What does it [B]matter [F#]any[B]way, [A]thirteen [E]cents or [A]all I [E]own?
[F#]How can I [B]ever [F#]save the [B]world, on [A]cup-o-soup and [B]student loans?
And [A]I [E]want to [B]try to save [D]the [A]world,[E] but it [B]never goes [D]my [A]way.[E]
God, I [B]don't know [D]what to do[A], [E]down at [B]Colfax and [D]Broadway.
[A] [E] [A] [E] [A] [E] [B] [D]
[A]Now the man with [E]no shoes on, [A]says I don't know [E]how to play.
[A]He says I fumble [E]all the time. He [A]thinks that I am [E]John Elway.
I [A]put my face down [E]in my hands, [A]water wells in[E]side my eyes.
What [A]do I have to [E]give them? [A]Does it maker [E]if I try?
[F#]I can't [B]stand to [F#]see you [B]suffer, I [A]try to [E]intel[A]lectua[E]lize,
A [F#]formul[B]a to [F#]end your [B]pain, it [A]doesn't work, God [B]knows I've tried.
And [A]I [E]want to [B]try to save [D]the [A]world,[E] but it [B]never goes [D]my [A]way.[E]
God, I [B]don't know [D]what to do[A], [E]down at [B]Colfax and [D]Broadway.
[B] [D] [A] Sometimes my [E]cup is overfilled.
[B]Sometimes I'm [D]too afraid that [E]I'm going to spill.
