[Intro 1]
[G]
[C][G]
[D][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
When you're [G]lost in the rain
in [C]Juarez when it's Easter time, [G]too
And your gravity fails and negat[C]ivity
don't pull you [G]through
Don't [C]put on any airs when you're
down on Rue Morgue Av[G]enue
They got some [D]hungry women there and
[Bm]they really make a [D]mess outta you
[G]

[Verse 2]
Now, if you see Saint Annie,
[C]please tell her thanks a [G]lot[D]
[G]I cannot move, my fin[C]gers are all in [G]a knot
I [C]don't have the strength to get
up and take another [G]shot
And my [D]best friend, my doctor,
won't even say what it is I've got
[G][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]
Sweet Melinda, the [C]peasants call
her the goddess [G]of gloom
She speaks good English and she in
[C]vites you up into [D]her room[G]
And [C]you're so kind and careful
not to go to her [D]too [G]soon
And [D]she takes your voice and leaves
you howling [G]at [D]the moon
[G][D]

[Verse 4]
[G]
Up on Housing Project Hill,
it's [C]either fortune or [G]fame[D][G]
You must pick one or the other,
though [C]neither of them are to be what they [G]claim
If you're [C]lookin' to get silly,
you better go back to from where you [G]came
Because [D]the cops don't need you, and man,

[Interlude 1]
they expect the same
[G][D][G][C][G]

[Verse 5]
Now, [G]all the authorities,
[D]the[C]y just stand around and[D] boast[G][D][G]
[D]How they [G]blackmailed the sergeant-
[D]at- arm[C]s into leaving his p[D]ost[G][D][G]
[C]And picking up Angel,
who just arrived here from [D]the coast[G]
Who [D]looked so fine at first but left
looking just [C]like [D]a ghost
[G][D]

[Verse 6]
[G]
I started out on burgundy [C]but soon hit
the harder [D]stuff[G][D][G]
Everybody said they'd stand be[D]hind
[C]me when the game got[D] rou[G]gh[D][G]
But [C]the joke was on me,
there was nobody even there [D]to [G]bluff[D][G]
I'm going [D]back to New York City,

[Outro 1]
I do believe I've had enough
