[Verse]
D
This town's dead tonight
D                    G          
I got no place to be
G
Moon is hung just right
G                            D
Shine like diamonds on these streets

[Verse]
D
Red Line wind me lonesome
D                             G
It's cuttin' clean through my heart
G
In my window smokin'
G                                             D
While the midnight's setting in on Rogers Park

[Instrumental]

[Verse]
D
I come here with hopes and
D                             G
Guess I came here with dreams
G
Now I’m all alone
G                         D
I can’t even get to sleep

[Verse]
D
So take my heart and break it in
D                         G
Send me back to the pines
G
Tired of lying awake at night
G                                Bm
Feels like I'm runnin outta time

[Chorus]
Bm     A                     D
See my dreams before my eyes
        G
Shadows on the wall
  Bm        A                   D
I ain’t got no place I can fall
Bm       A               D
 Snowin’ in off the lake
        G
Punchin holes in the dark
Bm                  A
 Through the lonely streets
          D
Of Rogers Park

[Verse]
D
So shadow boys are begging and I
D                            G
Hear 'em down in the streets
G 
Corner girls are waiting
G                                      D
For someone to take them off for keeps

[Verse]
D
There ain’t no hope in healing them
D                                  G
There ain’t no prayer for the poor
G 
And all that's lost in stealin
G                         Bm
She can’t hold me anymore

[Chorus]
Bm     A                     D
See my dreams before my eyes
        G
Shadows on the wall
  Bm        A                   D
I ain’t got no place I can fall
Bm       A               D
 Snowin’ in off the lake
        G
Punchin holes in the dark
Bm                  A
 Through the lonely streets
          D
Of Rogers Park

[Outro]
D                     Bm
Oh through the lonely streets
A          D
