[Verse]
s1 s2
chase and sanborn met
Bm D
bumming cigarettes from the
s1 s2
bums that they met
Bm
in the downtown streets of the city,
D
in the downtown streets of the city.
s1 s2
girls and coffee tasting,
Bm D
watching movies and wasting
s1 s2
time, we could recite every
Bm D
line from 'plain clothes' and 'out of sight'
Bm D
a young arlis howard could make you feel alright.
Bm D
but those maxwell house dreams won't
Bm
hold you up when the caffeine folds
D
in the blood of your heart, and you know its true.
s1 s2
trying hard to ensure
Bm D
the dregs of your cup aren't too plebian,
s1 s2
cause those mechanical eyes tell
Bm D
unreliable lies when they're judging the human heart.
s1 s2
oh! sister's mary's room,
Bm D
oh! the physical duplicates,
s1 s2
oh! my reds and greens,
Bm D
and what it's like to be a bat.
Bm D
but those maxwell house dreams won't
Bm
hold you up when your friendships fold
D
and you're left alone.
s1 s2
sanborn says the taste has changed,
Bm D
but chase still says it tastes the same,
s1 s2
just his tastes in friends has changed
Bm D
and he could never feel the same.
s1 s2
but we'll always have those better times,
Bm D
we'll always have those better times
s1 s2
with young arlis howard,
Bm
in the downtown streets of the city,
D
in the downtown streets of the city.
