# This is the original key of the song.
# It's easier to play by bringing it down one step to Am-F-C-G.
# Or, capo on 1st, finger Am-F-C-G for easy play-along.

[Verse 1]

Bbm                                         F#
When we were young the future was so bright
                                  C#
The old neighborhood was so alive
                                       G#
And every kid on the whole damn street
                                    Bbm
Was gonna make it big in every beat
                                        F#
Now the neighborhood's cracked and torn
                                               C#
The kids are grown up but their lives are worn
                          G#
How can one little street swallow so many lives

[Chorus]

        Bbm
Chances thrown
          F#
Nothing's free
        C#
Longing for
        G# 
Used to be
           Bbm
Still it's hard
        F#
Hard to see
        C#
Fragile lives 
          G#
shattered dreams

[Verse 2]

Bbm                                     F#
Jenny had a chance, well she really did
                                                 C#
Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids
                                               G#          
Mark still lives at home cause he's got no job
                                             Bbm
He just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot
                      F#
Jay committed suicide
                      C#
Brandon OD'd and died
                           G#                    
What the hell is going on? The cruellest dream - reality

[Chorus]
