This  pavement feels  cold on my face
 And my  bones have seen  better days
 Be a  friend, pick  me up off the ground
 Nice and  easy,  oooh
 I got a scar,  you can  see it from afar
 Like cigarette  burns on the top  of my guitar
 If you wish me  luck, don't tell  me to break a leg
 I coulda  been walking  on a peg
 And at the  end of the day I will return  to the city of lakes
 Where the real  people roam close to where  all the real waves break
I  got a girl, she  got lots of style
 You can see every tooth  in her mouth  when she smiles
 She's prettier than you,  and you,  and you
 Yeah, she's prettier than  you
 I got a dream,  I hope  that it comes true
 And if it don't,  don't know  what I'm gonna do
 I got  a dream,  I got  a dream
 And at the  end of the day I will return  to the city of lakes
 Where the real  people roam close to where  all the real waves break
 I lost a friend  in this  past year
 I miss his  guitar playing  in my ear
 Be a friend,  take away  all my fears
 Nice  and easy,  nice and  easy,  nice  and  easy
