Start with fingerpicking E

There is a Emiddle-aged woman, she's F#mdragging her feet
She carries G#mbaskets of clothes to a F#mlaundromat
While the EMexican children kick F#mrocks into the street
And they G#mlaugh in a language I don't F#munderstand
But I love Athem... why do I love Ethem?

So the Eneighborhood's dimming, I F#msmoke on the porch
Watch the G#mpeople as they pass enclosed inF#mside their cars
And on their Efaces just anger or F#mdisappointment
I start G#mwishing there was something I could F#moffer them
A Aconsolation... what could I offer Ethem?

And they are Esad in their suburbs, robots F#mwater the lawn
And G#meverything they touch gets dusted F#mspotless
And so they Estart to believe they've not touched F#manything at all
And the G#mcars in the driveway only F#mmultiply

They are Elost in their houses, I've heard them F#msing in the shower
Making G#mspeeches to their sister on the F#mtelephone
Saying you come Ehome, you come here, don't stay so F#mfar away from me
This G#mweather has me wanting love more F#mtangible
Something I can Ahold... it's getting Ecold

I say F#mhold up our Efists to a Bflame in the Asky
To F#mblock out the Elight that's reachBing for our Aeyes
'Cause it... 'cause it would Eblind us,A yeah it will Eblind us

Well I've Elocked my actions in the F#mgrooves of routine
So I may G#mnever be free of this F#mapathy
But I Ewait for a letter that's F#mcoming to me
She sends me G#mpictures of the ocean in an F#menvelope

So there still is Ehope, yes, I can be healed
There is someone F#mlooking for what I've concealed
In my secret G#mdrawer, in my pockets deep
You will find the F#mreasons that I can't sleep
And you will still want Ame... but will you still want Eme?
AWill you still want Eme?

Well, I say F#mcome for the Eweek, you can Bsleep in my Abed
And F#mpass through my Elife like a Bdream through my Ahead
It will... it will be Eeasy,A I'll make it Eeasy

But all I Ehave for the moment is a F#msong to pass the time
A G#mmelody to keep me from F#mworrying
Some Esimple progression to keep my F#mfingers busy
And G#mwords that are sure to come F#mback to me
And they'll be laughAing... and they'll be laughEing
AMy mediocriEty
AMy mediocriEty

A E A E...
