F I was bruised and battered, and I couldn't tell what I felt Am I was unrecognizable, to myself F Saw my reflection in a window, I didn't know my own face Am Oh, brother are you gonna leave me wasting away, A# F C A# F C on the streets of Philadelphia? I walked the avenue 'til my legs felt like stone I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone At night I could hear the blood in my veins Just as black and whispering as the rain On the streets of Philadelphia A# Dm Ain't no angel gonna greet me; A# F it's just you and I my friend Am A# And my clothes don't fit me no more; C I walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin The night has fallen, I'm lyin' awake I can feel myself fading away So receive me, brother, with your faithless kiss Or will we leave each other alone like this On the streets of Philadelphia?
