The Junkie Song - The Be Good Tanyas
(intro) [Am]>[G] [C] [G_] (x2) / [Am] [G_]
(verse 1)
[Am] Took a walk in [C] my neighbour[G_]hood
[Am] Two in the [G] morning
By the [Am] Skytrain [G_] station
(verse 2)
[Am] The streets of full of [C] junkies and [G_] homeless
And they [Am] all wanted [G] something
They [Am] all wanted [G_] something
(break) [Am]>[G] [C] [G_] (x2)
(verse 3)
[Am] And what am I sup[C]posed to [G_] do?
There are [Am] too many of [G] you
[Am] Too many [G_] of you
(verse 4)
[Am] They sometimes [C] look you in the [G_] eye
Say that "[Am] I too am [G] human,"
I could [Am] easily [G_] be here."
(break) [Am]>[G] [C] [G] (x2)
(bridge)
[C] Though we all [Am] hover between [F] apathy and com[D]passion
[C] We fill up all our [Am] days with [F] so much dis[D]traction
[C] What makes it [Am] easier not to to [F] see what we don't [D] want to
But we [C] all live here, we [Am] all live here, we [F] all live here,
don't [D] we?
