Bb Dm Gm
As a younger girl you didn't have much
Gm7M Gm7 Gm6 Eb
There ain't a lot to have on our side of town
F Eb Gm Gm7M Gm Gm7M
The streets are dirty, we got by
Bb Dm Gm
Then one day we kinda lost touch
Gm7M Gm7 Gm6 Eb
You packed and moved away from our side of town
F Eb Gm Gm7M Gm Gm7M F
You wanted fine things many can buy
Eb F
You found the people with money
Eb F
Bright lights that turn night to day
Fm
Just like a candlelight
You're really burnin' bright
Gm
But just how long can you stay?
Eb F Eb F
Burn like a candle, it's your turn to burn

Fire's gettin' higher, girl, you got no shame
Eb F Eb Gm Bb
Burn like a candle, you'll run out of flame

Just the other day I saw you on the street
Gm7M Gm7 Gm6 Eb
You didn&rsquo t know me, you were flyin' so high
F Eb Gm Gm7M Gm Gm7M
Your face was empty, head in the sky

You looked so thin, no shoes were on your feet
Gm7M Gm7 Gm6 Eb
Your crystal beads were brighter than your eyes
F Eb Gm Gm7M Gm Gm7M F
You didn't see me walk right on by

The trip you're takin' is one-way
Eb F
The train to nowhere goes fast
