[Verse 1]
(Main Riff)
Down on the boulevard they take it hard
(Main Riff)
They look at life with such disregard
            E                        F#m
They say it can't be won The way the game is run
           E                                   F#m
But if you choose to stay   You end up playing anyway

[Verse 2]
(Main Riff)
The kid's in shock up and down the block
(Main Riff)
The folks are home playing beat the clock
            E                       F#m
Down at the golden cup They set the young ones up
          E                  F#m
Under the neon light Selling day for night
A (Riff #2) D
It's  al -  right

G      D         E
Nobody rides for free
G      D                 E
Nobody gets it like they want it to be
G      D             E
Nobody hands you any guarantee
G      D    E
   Nobody

(Main Riff)       (Main Riff)
Nobody Baby        Nobody

[Verse 3]
(Main Riff)
The hearts are hard and the times are tough
(Main Riff)
Down on the boulevard the night's enough
E                                F#m
And time passes slow Between the store front shadows and the street lights glow
E                                     F#m
Everybody walks right by like they're safe or something
A (Riff #2) D
They  don't know--

(Riff #3 on next 4 lines)
G       D     E
Nobody knows you
G       D       E
Nobody owes you nothin’
G       D                     E
Nobody shows you what they're thinking
G       D     E
Nobody
