Amy Ray - Subway Chords

[Intro]
A    E   F#m    D
 
[Verse 1]
A                                 E
  In the Geminid shower, you flew away through Orion's sky
             F#m              D
The maverick queen of our galaxy
A                             E                                          F#m
 Play these tunes I wrote for her, you and your golden ear and flare for words
                D
Tell us how you hung the stars
A                            E
 'Cause I am useless in this aging hour
               F#                     D
Of broken pipe dreams in a skyline of water towers
  A                      E
I crave the night, can't shake it from my sight
    F#m
You knew me every time
    D                    A    E
You knew me every time
 
[Verse 2]
A                       E
 On the way, I fell for every mountain rangе
              F#m                                  D
Every endless sky, еvery painted pony plain, every arrowhead this kid could fly
A                             E                                  F#m
 But on the hoof, I found New York, getting groomed for some big tour
                                  D
Holding hands with girls down the streets and avenues
A                           E                       F#m
 Make it count in the music biz and that's what you did
                   D
But me, I am still wandering
          A                      E
'Cause I crave the trying, can't shake it from my mind
    F#m
You saw me every time
    D
You saw me every time
 
A    F#m    E
 
[Chorus]
A                             C#m
"Don't take the subway, baby, let's just walk," we'd say
Bm                       E
Til our longing turns to day
         A
Remember when
             C#m
Alphabet City was a wilderness to you and me
Bm                  E
Before Rudy had his way
 
[Bridge]
F                         G
And they kept it all shut down
                                Am
From Jones Beach to the Mercury Lounge
                                F
After you left, the sh*t really hit the fan
                     G
So we took it to the streets
                        Am
Crying, "No justice, no peace"
                                         F
All for one, one for all, here comes the show
                  G (let ring)
Hey, turn on your radio
 
[Guitar solo]
C    Em    F    G
Am   Em    F    G
 
[Bridge]
F                       G
Yeah, we took it to the streets
                      Am     E
'Cause freedom is not free
 
[Chorus]
A                             C#m
"Don't take the subway, baby, let's just walk," we'd say
Bm                       E
Til our longing turns to day
         A
Remember when
             C#m
Alphabet City was a wilderness to you and me
Bm                  E
Before Rudy had his way
 
[Outro]
     F                G                  A
This Georgia girl has got it bad for New York
