[Verse 1]

Em
Filed down coffins in the neighborhood. A Spanish girl walking by the cemetery wood
 D                                                  C
Five in the pan, we do what we can though it ain't right
  Gm                     G                       F#   F
A fat man sitting on the side of his remote, his daughter's in the kitchen trying to clean his 
coat
          Em
I bet she can't

[Verse 2]
Em
The rattle of a bottle on a warped wooden desk, shaking back and forth beside my bated breath
   D                                                         C#m C
A blind girl laughing while I stare at her chest, I'm in the zone
Gm                    G
I won't survive if I make it out alive
F                                Em
Seven/ten split, I don't got... shit

[Chorus]

 Am                  C                  Gm    Dm
Down on Main Street, I got friends waiting (there)ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Am           Bm  C
I don't need no drop off girls
Gm             F
I like the air

[Verse 3]

Em
Elysian Park through the dark about a mile

A little white girl with a Bobby King smile
D                                                              C#m   C
Blue little bags she says she knows I'm feeling bad I'm worth your while
    Gm                      A#   G                       F                            Em
But here 'tween the palette feelings I don't understand, cardboard cutouts, just be a man

[Verse 4]

Em
Have fun walking home in Mike Davis land
Em
Pull the wool over my eyes
Em
I don't want to understand
   D                                                                   C
I like the trees, the army and the colors that they wear, they like to scare

[Verse 5]
Gm                                          F
A few blocks home from remembering my name, a few blocks home

[Chorus]

 Am                  C                  Gm    Dm
Down on Main Street, I got friends waiting (there)ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Am           Em  C              D  Gm            F
I don't need no drop off girls, I like the aiiir
