1.
[G]Cops and junkies hurl their sophistries
[D]And hail cacophony
[Em]Try not hard to shake this off of me
[D]Howl you fools, it's all for naught

2.
But on [G]16th street we wait for holiness
[D]Vaccinate ourselves from loneliness
[Em]Masquerade through homes of homelessness
[D]And oh, I hope we'll not get over this

[G] [D] [Em] [D]

[G]Here the now is [Bm]now upon us
[A]Everyone must s[D]hare this on us
[G]Ancients have no [Bm]more to loan us
[A]All our debts unp[D]aid
On [G]16th street we [Bm]rise in numbers
[A]Once a name now j[D]ust a number
[G]Scream for all the [Bm]unsaid, unheard
[A]prisoners on [D]parade

[G] [Bm] [A] [D] 2x

3.
[G]Sweet Dolores, mi mamasita
[D]Seems each day I still re-meet you
[Em]Disculpame mi pobrecita
[D]Guess I left things incomplete

4.
But [G]all this noise will soon be over
[D]So let's drink until you're halfway sober
[Em]Red rover's already over
[D]But the last thing that we need is closure

[G] [D] [Em] [D]

[G]Now it's time for [Bm]us to swallow
[A]all this loss unt[D]il tomorrow
[G]Pay back all the [Bm]time we've borrowed
[A]Anger well displ[D]ayed

On 1[G]6th street we f[Bm]all in numbers
[A]No one questions, [D]no one wonders
[G]Scream for all the [Bm]unsaid, unheard
[A]hoodlums on [D]parade

[G] [Bm] [A] [D] 4x
       [G]
