F#m As I walk these narrow streets Where a million passin feet have trod before me With my guitar in my hand Suddenly I realize nobody knows me Bm Where yesterday the multitude F#m Screamed and cried my name out for a song Today the streets are empty And the crowds have all gone home I pass a million houses But there is no place that I belong All I knew to give you Was song after song after song All the truths I tried to tell you Were as distant to you as the moon Born two-hundred years too late And two-hundred years too soon I'm a child of this age Locked into the pages of your book And when I am but dust and clay And all the children stop to take a look Will they marvel at the miracles I did perform And the heights I did aspire Or will they tear out the pages of the book To light a fire With the rain on my face There is no place where I belong Did you forget this fucking singer so soon? And did you forget my song? | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsF#m Bm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
