C
If I had a girl on 9th avenue
                   F
I know exactly what she would do
          D         G    D              G
She would wander at dawn look around At folks
      D              G           D            G
Find someone better looking who tells Better jokes
 F                                             C
And then she'd leave me and I'd walk Back east alone

Chorus

Em      Am
9 8 7th avenue

Now I'm crossing Madison
Em               Am
Sobbing on Park Avenue
F
Feeling bad on Lexington
Em      Am
3 2 1st avenue
Em         Am
Going east with the wind

Cross the FDR to the east river
          C
Fall right in

She would wander at day look at all the Guys
      D              G           D            G
Find someone who's read more books And has bluer eyes

Bridge 1

F                                      G
Until the scum in the east river would Drown me
F                                G
The phlegm and rotten rats would Surround me
F                                    G
The shattered cars at the bottom all Around me
F                                    C
Until I was just another scum in the East river

Bridge 2

F                                 Em
And when I become the scum it's my Job to drown
F                                 Em
The pathetic hopes and failures of the Next unloved clown
F                                          Em
Though maybe it would be a girl and We could become scum together
F
Decompose as the river flows
Em
Become one scum together
Become one forever
                               C
One bloated rotten putrid scum forever

Chorus

Now I'm crossing Madison
Em               Am
Sobbing on Park Avenue
F
Feeling bad on Lexington
Em      Am
3 2 1st avenue
Em         Am
Going east with the wind
Em          Am            F
Cross the FDR to the east river
          C
Fall right in
