[Verse 1]
I was Cwalking around, just a faceD in the crowd
Trying to Emkeep myself out of the rain
Saw a Cvagabond king wear a styDrofoam crown
Wondered Emif i might end up the same
There's a Cman out on the corDner
EmSinging old songs aCbout change
Everybody got their Dcross to bare, these Gdays
[Verse 2]
She came Clooking for some shelDter with a Emsuitcase full of dreams
To a Cmotel room on the bouDlevard
I guess she's Emtrying to be james dean
She's Cseen all the disciDples and Emall the "wanna be's" C
No one wants to beD themselves these days Em
Still there's Cnothing to hold onD to but theseG days
[Chorus]
These Cdays the starsD seem out of Emreach
These Cdays there ain't a Dladder on the Gstreets
These Cdays are fast, Dnothing lasts Gin this graceless Cage
There ain't nobody leftD but us these Gdays
[Verse 3]
Jimmy Cshoes busted both Dhis legs, Emtrying to learn to fly
From a Csecond story winDdow, he just jumpedEm and closed his eyes
His Cmomma said he was craDzy he said, Em"momma, i've got to try C
Don't you know that allD my heroes Emdied?
And i Cguess i'd rather dieD than fade away." G
[Chorus]
These Cdays the starsD seem out of Emreach
These Cdays there ain't a Dladder on the Gstreets
These Cdays are fast, Dnothing lasts Gin this graceless Cage
Even innocence has caughtD the morning Emtrain
CThere ain't nobody leftD but us these Gdays
