Intro: F Dm F Dm
       F C Dm C

1.
F
Cops and junkies hurl their sophistries
C
And hail cacophony
Dm
Try not hard to shake this off of me
C
Howl you fools, it's all for naught

2.
       F
But on 16th street we wait for holiness
C
Vaccinate ourselves from loneliness
Dm
Masquerade through homes of homelessness
C
And oh, I hope we'll not get over this

Bridge: F C Dm C

Refrain:
F               Am
Here the now is now upon us
G              C
Everyone must share this on us
F                Am
Ancients have no more to loan us
G                C
All our debts unpaid 
   F              Am
On 16th street we rise in numbers
G                C
Once a name now just a number
F                  Am
Scream for all the unsaid, unheard 
G            C
prisoners on parade

Bridge: F Am G C 2x

3.
F
Sweet Dolores, mi mamasita
C
Seems each day I still re-meet you
Dm
Disculpame mi pobrecita
C
Guess I left things incomplete

4.
    F
But all this noise will soon be over
C
So let's drink until you're halfway sober
Dm
Red rover's already over
C
But the last thing that we need is closure

Bridge: F C Dm C

Refrain:
F                 Am
Now it's time for us to swallow 
G                C
all this loss until tomorrow
F                Am
Pay back all the time we've borrowed
G               C
Anger well displayed

    F              Am
On 16th street we fall in numbers
G                 C
No one questions, no one wonders
F                  Am
Scream for all the unsaid, unheard 
G           C
hoodlums on parade

Outro: F Am G C 4x
