C D Gm7 C7 Gm7 C7
and the maddess that makes this city hard
i heard a baskettball
somewhere out beyond a chain link fence

argue for the right of self defense
but theres a fast break
and every work of art brakes something in my soul
just focus on the cross strokes
and the bouquets that the dancers hold

B7 Em
stading in the shadow of miss liberty
