A People sleepin' on the sidewalks D C D C D On a rainy day A Families livin' under freeways D C D C D It's the American way A Starvin' in the city While the farm goes to seed C Murder in the home G F And crime on the streets Chorus: A C D Don't that trouble you brother? A C D Don't that trouble you pal? A C D Don't that trouble you sister? E7 Well, that's life in the city All our old hangouts Are boarded up and closed Or being sold to someone Nobody knows I got a woman that loves me And I love her so She's all dressed up now With nowhere to go Chorus That's life in the city Listen to me people Hear what I have to say Ever since I was knee high I rocked my blues away But people sleepin' on the sidewalks And families in need Murder in the home And crime on the streets Chorus | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Chords fingeringsA C D E7 F G |
