Strum
D-DU-UDU
When the lights go out in the street
The bums and dregs have long been asleep
Ain't nobody gonna trifle with me
Cause it's a beautiful world
We were young we were hungry and mean
With missing fingers, scars inbetween
When hunger's king and poverty's queen
It's a beautiful world
There's a blue sky hanging over our head
Your friends are all drunk and your enemies dead
The county judge is wondering why
He tips his hat as he walks by
There's a hangman and he's stretching the sun
Swings once a day from dusk until dawn
When the river of life fills up with your blood
It's a beautiful world
Yea can you see the power lines
Going out of business and a one way sign
God in heaven or the man on the moon
I can't find no elbow room
The ship is sinking with no mayday
A thousand people drowning out in the bay
Sit and smile while you dabble away
It's a beautiful world
