A       G#m     F#m          B            E        A  E
 Street choir; sing me the song for the new day.
A              G#m           F#m        B           E       A  E
 Don't make it long, and re-member to sing it the old way.
A           G#m   F#m       B                 E          A  E
 Let it all out; let your voice ring in the street now.

 My fun, will be this one to com-plete now.

Chorus 1:

E        E/D#         G#m     A
 Why did you leave A-merica?
            B      E     A  E
Why did you let me down?
        E/D#  G#m          A
And now that things seem better off;
                B E      A  E
Why do you come a-round?

         E/D# G#m         A
You know I   just can't see you now,
                B       E     A  E
In my new world crystal ball.
         E/D# G#m         A
You know I   just can't free you now;
                  B  E    A  E
That's not my job at all.

Verse 2:

A        G#m     F#m      B            E      A  E
 Move it on up, move it on up by the window.
    A        G#m    F#m         B          E        A  E
Mag-nificent flow; let it all go, in the moonglow.
A              G#m    F#m            B           E     A  E
 I'll take the wine, I'll take the wine in the gravy.
A            G#m        F#m            B          E    A  E
 Ask you the time, and just send the bill to my baby.

                B E      A  E
Why do you come a-round?

         E/D# G#m         A
You know I   just can't see you now,
                B       E     A  E
In my new world crystal ball.
