Version 1 Version 3 Version 4
            I bet you guys will like these chords over the others here. I got these by a combination 
videos you can see on - and I think it's way easier and sound's better.

Capo 3rd fret


[Verse 1]

Sirens [D] ring,   shots rang [A] out,
A stranger [Em] cries,...    screams out [G] loud,
I had my [D] world,...    strapped against my [A] back,
I held my [Em] hands,...   never  knew  [G] how  to act,

chorus:Well the [D] same black line that was drawn on you
was [A] drawn on me,       and now its drawn me [Em] in,
6th avenue [G] heartache


[Verse 2]

Below  [D] me,      was a homeless [A] man,
I'm singing [Em] songs,...     I knew com - [G] plete,
On the steps [D] alone,....    his guitar in [A] hand,
his 50 [Em] years,....     he stood where he [G] stands,

(Repeat Chorus Twice)


[Verse 3]

Now I'm walking [D] home,...    on those [A] streets,
the river [Em] winds,....    move my  [G]  feet
The subway [D] steam,....    like silhouettes in [A] dreams,
Stood by [Em] me,...... [stood by me]  just like moon - [G] beams,

(Repeat Chorus Twice)


[Verse 4]

Look out the [D] window,   down upon that [A] street,
Gone like at [Em] midnight,   was, that [G] man,
but I see his [D] six strings,..   layed against that [A] wall,
and all his [Em] things,.... they all look so [G] small,
I got my fingers [D] crossed,...  on  a shooting [A] star
just like [Em] me,.....    just moved,  [G]   just moved on


[Chorus]
(repeat)

Now you can also play with these chords a little bit to spice it up a little. It sounds 
good when you get it down.


  &lt;    [D] (varied)    &gt;   &lt;    [A] (varied)    &gt;

e|--2--222--22--33--3220---0--000--00--00--0000-------|
B|--3--333--33--33--3333---2--223--33--22--2000-------|
G|--2--222--22--22--2222---2--222--22--22--2222-------|

A|-------------------------0--000--00--00--0000-------|
E|----------------------------------------------------|

This in more of the real strum pattern:

V V V^V^V V^V

But I like to add a little touch of my own.


Also, I've been playing with the solo in the beginning. I know i'm a little off but if 
have any better ways to play it, please email me at .


These are writtin without the Capo in mind so 10th fret is 10th fret.


e|-10-8-8h10-8-------------------------|
B|-------------10-10p8---8h10-8---6h8--|
G|---------------------9--------9------|
