F7 Well, I’m stranded in the city that never sleeps Some of these women they just give me the creeps I’m avoidin’ the Southside the best I can These memories I got, they can strangle a man A#7 Well, I came ashore in the dead of the night F7 Lot of things can get in the way when you're trying to do what's right C7 You don't understand it, my feeling for you F7 You'd be honest with me if you only knew. I'm not sorry for nothing I've done I'm glad I fought, I only wish we won The siamese twins are coming to town People can't wait, they've gathered around When I left my home the sky split open wide I never wanted to go back there, I'd rather have died You don't understand it, my feeling for you You'd be honest with me if only you knew My woman got a face like a teddy bear She's tossin' a baseball bat in the air The meat is so tough you can't cut it with a sword I'm crashing my car trunk first into the board You say that my eyes are pretty and my smile is nice Well, I'd sell it to you at a reduced price You don't understand it, my feeling for you You'd be honest with me if only you knew Some things are too terrible to be true, I won't come here no more if it bothers you. There's a Southern Pacific leaving at 9:45 I'm having a hard time believing some people were ever alive I'm stark naked but I don't care I'm going off into the woods, I'm huntin' bare You don't understand it, my feeling for you Well, you'd be honest with me if only you knew I'm here to create the new imperial empire I'm gon' do whatever circumstances require I care so much for you I didn't think I could I can't tell my heart that you're no good Well, my parents, they warned me not to waste my years And I still got their advice oozing out of my ears You don't understand it, my feeling for you Well, you'd be honest with me if only you knew You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#7  C7  F7  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
