A  E        D        A 
My heart is beating from me  
A    E         D   A 
I am standing all alone  
A           D  A 
Please call me only  
A  E       D      A 
If you are coming home  
E             A 
Waste another year flies by  
E                A 
Waste a night or two  
D          A  D   A  E 
You taught me how to live

[Versetto]
       A       D  E 
In the streets of shame,  
             A         D      A  D   E 
Where you've lost your dreams in the rain,  
           A     D  E 
There's no signs of hope,  
              D                 A      E 
The stems and seeds of the last of the dope,  
          A    D  E 
There's a glow of light,  
        A            D     A  D   E 
The St. Jimmy is the spark in the night,  
        A     D   E 
Bearing gifts and trust,  
            D      A       E 
The fixture in the city of lust 
[Versetto]
         F#m    E    A 
What the hell's your name,  
            F#m       E            A 
What's your pleasure, what is your pain?  
       F#m   E    A 
Do you dream too much?  
       D                   A    E 
Do you think what you need is a crutch? 
[Strumentale]

       A     D  E               A         D   A D E 
In the crowd of pain, St. Jimmy comes without any shame,  
               A 
He says "We're fucked up",  
    D             E 
But we're not the same,  
            D                        E 
And mom and dad are the ones you can blame  
      F#m  E A 
Jimmy died today  
            F#m          E      A 
He blew his brains out into the bay,  
       F#m   E  A 
In the state of mind  
        D              E 
it's my own private suicide

Jesus is filling out paperwork now,  
G         D     A       D 
At the facility on east 12th Street,  
D                  G    D 
He's not listening to a word now,  
G           D 
He's in his own world,  
    A       D 
And he's daydreaming  
D                    G         D 
He'd rather be doing something else now,  
     D              G               A    D 
Like cigarettes and coffee with the underbelly,  
    D                         G  D 
His life's on the line with anxiety now,  
D        G 
She had enough,  
    A      D 
And he had plenty

So far away,

I don't want to stay,

Get me outta here right now,  
C 
I just want to be free,

Is there a possibility?

I fell asleep while watching Spike TV,  
      D           A 
After 10 cups of coffee,  
           G         A 
And you're still not here,  
D             A 
Dreaming of a song,  
     G              A 
When something went wrong,  
        D           A 
And you can't tell anyone,  
     G        A 
'Cos no one's here 
[Versetto]
Bm            A 
Left me here alone,  
       G                  D 
When I should have stayed home,  
      Bm          A 
After 10 cups of coffee,  
    D 
I'm thinking, 
[Versetto]
D      A 
Nobody likes you,  
G        A 
Everyone left you,  
        D          A 
They're all out without you,  
G      A 
Havin' fun, 
[Versetto]
D         A 
Everyone left you,  
G      A 
Nobody likes you,  
        D           A 
They're all out without you,

Havin' fun,   
             D 
Where'd you go?

I got a rock and roll band,  
D 
I got a rock and roll life,  
A 
I got a rock and roll girlfriend,  
E 
And another ex-wife 
[Versetto]
A 
I got a rock and roll house,  
D 
I got a rock and roll car,  
A 
I play the shit out of the drums,  
E 
And I can play the guitar 
[Versetto]
A 
I got a kid in New York,  
D 
I got a kid in the Bay,  
A 
I haven't drank or smoked nothin',  
   E 
In over 22 days, 
[Versetto]
       G      A 
So get off of my case,  
    G      A 
Get off of my case,  
G     A   D ... 
Off of my case

[Versetto]
  
Here they come marching down the street, 
 
Like a desperation murmur of a heart beat, 
 
Coming back from the edge of town, 
 
Underneath their feet  
G A 
  

The time has come and it's going nowhere,  
 
Nobody ever said that life was fair now, 
 
Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear, 
 
In the summer heat  
D A  
  
G            A                   G 
The world is spinning around and around,  
           A 
Out of control again,  
D A 
  
G          A        Bm               E 
From the 7-11 to the fear of breaking down,  
   D        G     A 
So send my love a letterbomb,  
  D     G       A 
To visit me in hell,  
G         A    G A 
We're the ones going  
D   A 
  
D 
Home.  
             A 
We're coming home again  
D 
Home.  
             A 
We're coming home again 
[Versetto]
G 
I started fuckin' running,  
                D 
As soon as my feet touch ground,  
G 
We're back in the barrio,  
       A                        G      A 
But to you and me, that's Jingletown. That's  
D 
Home.

We're coming home again,  
D 
Home.

We're coming home again,

Home.  
             A 
We're coming home again,

We're coming home again, 
[Versetto]
D 
Home.  
             A          G 
We're coming home again,  
D 
Home.  
             A          G 
We're coming home again,  
D 
Home.

We're coming home again,
