Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
C
The New York City winter comes in cold grey sheets of steel,
Em
A numbness in his hands and feet is all that he can feel.
F G7 C
Alcohol and sterno turns a doorway to a bed
G Am
And the ghost of who he might have been lives on inside his head.
C
In a canyon made of brownstone on a sidewalk icy black
Em
He wanders nearly barefoot with his righteousness intact.
F G7 C
A man of many mansions in a cardboard box replete,
G Am
And he lies sleeping with an angel while his heart pretends to beat.
F
Ah, the wind blows down on Lonely Street like an ice pick through the air
Am
Midst the Sunday Times and the coffee grinds and the winos in Times Square.
F C
Five flights up on Easy Street, you know she's safe and warm,
G Am
And way down low ?neath a foot of snow he's a- riding out the storm.
C
I offered him my winter coat, politely he refused,
Em
Like an educated man he spoke with words I seldom use.
F G7 C
He said I don't need pity, for these choices are my own.
G Am
He bowed his head just slightly and then quietly moved a long.
F
Ah, the wind blows down on Lonely Street like an ice pick through the air
Am
Midst the Sunday Times and the coffee grinds and the winos in Times Square.
F C
Five flights up on Easy Street, you know she's safe and warm,
G Am
And way down low ?neath a foot of snow he's a- riding out the storm.
F Am F Am
C
Well, it?s not like he's a victim of this homeless life he stalks,
Em
Nor helpless to get back across the fine line that he walks.
F G7 C
Riding out the storm means yester day's already spent,
G Am
Tomorrow don't mean nothing, it won't even make a dent.
F
Ah, the wind blows down on Lonely Street like an ice pick through the air
Am
Midst the Sunday Times and the coffee grinds and the winos in Times Square.
F C
Five flights up on Easy Street, you know she's safe and warm,
G Am
And way down low ?neath a foot of snow he's a- riding out the storm.
C G C Am
- Riding out, riding out, riding out, ooo-ooo- ooo.
C G C Am
- Riding out, riding out, riding out, ooo-ooo- ooo.
C G C Am
- Riding out, riding out, riding out, ooo-ooo- ooo.
C G C Am
- Riding out, riding out, riding out, ooo-ooo- ooo.
