Harmony Road

Tom : Em
G   Em   Bm   D   G   A   G

[Verse 1]
g Em
The street where we live
Bm F#m
Is commonly known as being the wrong side of town
G Em
They look down their noses at you
Bm A
Like they're entitled to keep you down
G Em
Our street has its social issues
Bm F#m
And violent crime by the bucket load
G A G
They laughed when they named it Harmony Road

[Verse 2]
G Em
They say where you're born
Bm F#m
Will have an effect on how you turn out in life
G Em
So how can you make a living
Bm A
When all you have is a pocket knife?
G Em
You don't have the choice to run
Bm F#m
From anothеr violent episode
G A G
Wеlcome to life here on Harmony Road

[Chorus]
G Em Bm F#m
One day, we'll make a break
G Em Bm A
Get out of here, make no mistake
G Em
We'll steal a car
Bm F#m
Find a happy song on the radio
G A G
And never come back to Harmony Road

[Verse 3]
G Em
You walk down the hill
Bm F#m
And past the old factory shuttered for twenty years
G Em
There used to be work
Bm A
But you wonder how you'll ever get out of here
G Em
If I had a song in me
Bm F#m
I would pay off all of the debts I owed
G A G
I'm all out of tune on Harmony Road

[Verse 4]
G Em
I'll find us some money
Bm F#m
And I will take you with me, I promise you
G Em
I'll buy you some fancy clothes
Bm A
And we'll do all the things we wanted to
G Em
And no one will know
Bm F#m
That we're any different, we're just à la mode
G A G
The king and the queen of Harmony Road

[Chorus]
G# Fm Cm Gm
One day, we'll make a break from here
G# Fm Cm Bb
We'll make it big and have no fear
G# Fm
Won't carry the social stigma
Cm Gm
Of being judged by our postal code
G# Bb G#
And we will be done with Harmony Road

[Outro]
G# Fm
But then in our dreams
Cm Gm
Are we to be haunted by what we left behind?
G# Fm
That road has a way of
Cm Bb
Pulling you back if ever you give it mind
G# Fm
No matter the riches
Cm Gm
And all the palaces where we may have strode
G# Bb G#
We'll always belong to Harmony Road
G# Bb G#
We'll always belong to Harmony Road
