I like to stick to walls
C#m A B A
Observing conversations and lifting them when they fall

I am a fire escape, my spine is made of iron

My heart pumps out old red paint.

Save yourself, save yourself, yourself.
E B C#m B A B
Save yourself, save yourself.

I see the seasons change,

All the young faces come and replace the dying ones.

Sit out on Lexington and Vine
C#m A B A
All the pimps and prostitutes wave you down at stopping signs.

Save yourself, save yourself, yourself.

Save yourself, save yourself.

Los Angeles I have been waiting for you,
E B A
to pick yourself up and change
E C#m B
The city you've made, this ocean and sand

And I've seen the ones that come get reduced to bones and rags.

I am a fire escape, my spine is made of iron
A B A
My heart pumps out old red paint.
E B C#m B A
Save yourself, save yourself.

Save yourself, save yourself.
