Key: B
Introduction:
Bbm
1. When we were young the future was so bright.
F#5
The old neighborhood was so alive,
Bbm
And ev'ry kid on the whole damn street
G#5
Was gonna make it big in ev'ry beat.
Bbm
Now the neighborhood cracked and torn.
F#5
The kids are grown up but their lives are worn.
G#5
How can one little street swallow so many lives?
Bbm F#
Chances burned, nothing's free
C# G#
Longing for used to be.
Bbm F#
Still it's hard, hard to see
C# G#
Fragile lives, shattered dreams.
2. Jenny had a chance, well she really did
Bbm F#
Chances burned, nothing's free
C# G#
Longing for used to be.
Bbm F#
Still it's hard, hard to see
C# G#
Fragile lives, shattered dreams.
Bridge, then repeat Chorus.
