[Verse 1]
I was [C]walking around
Just a [D]face in the crowd
Tryna [Em]keep myself out of the rain
Saw a [C]vagabond king
Wear a [D]Styrofoam crown
Wondered [Em]if I might end up the same
There's a [C]man out on the [D]corner
[Em]Singing old songs a[C]bout change
Everybody's got [D]their cross to bear
[G]these days

[Verse 2]
She came [C]looking for some [D]shelter
With a [Em]suitcase full of dreams
To a [C]motel room on the boul[D]evard
I guess she's [Em]tryna be James Dean
She's [C]seen all the dis[D]ciple
and [Em]all the wanna- b[C]es
No one wants to [D]be themselves
these [Em]days
Still there's [C]nothing to hold [D]on to but
[G]these days

[Chorus 1]
These [C]days
the [D]stars hang out of [Em]reach
These [C]days
there ain't a [D]ladder on the [G]streets
Oh, no, no
These [C]days, are fast
[D]Nothing lasts
[G]In this graceless [C]age
There ain't nobody [D]left but us [G]these days

[Verse 3]
Jimmy [C]Shoes busted [D]both his legs
[Em]Tryna learn to fly
From a [C]second story win[D]dow
He just [Em]jumped and closed his eyes
His [C]momma said he was [D]crazy
He said, [Em]"Momma, I've gotta [C]try
Don't you know that [D]all my heroes [Em]died?
And I [C]guess I'd rather [D]die than fade a[G]way"

[Chorus 2]
These [C]days
the [D]stars hang out of [Em]reach
These [C]days
there ain't a [D]ladder on the [G]streets
Oh, no, no
These [C]days, are fast
[D]Nothing lasts
[G]In this graceless [C]age
Even innocence has [D]caught
the midnight [Em]train
And there [C]ain't nobody [D]left but us
[G]these days

[Bridge 1]
[C][A][C][A]
[C]I know Rom[A]e's still burning
[C]Though the tim[A]es have changed
[C]This wor[A]ld keeps turning
[D]Round and round and round

[Solo 1]

[Chorus 3]
These [C]days
the [D]stars hang out of [Em]reach
These [C]days
there ain't a [D]ladder on the [G]streets
Oh, no, no
These [C]days, are fast
[D]Love don't last
[G]It's a graceless [C]age
Even innocence has [D]caught
the midnight [Em]train

[Chorus 4]
These [C]days
the [D]stars hang out of [Em]reach
These [C]days
there ain't a [D]ladder on the [G]streets
Oh, no, no
These [C]days, are fast
[D]Nothing lasts
There [G]ain't no time to [C]waste
There ain't nobody [D]left to take the [Em]blame
Oh, no, no
There [C]ain't nobody [D]left but us [G]these days
