Lead Paint And Salt Air Acordes

N.C.
One, two, three
 
One, two, three

[Verse 1]
        C
Down in Asbury Park
 
In a sublet I'm renting
  F
I got a new job
 
Where I'm out painting houses
    Am
The sun on my neck and some cash in my pocket
   G
At least there's fresh air here
        C
I watch families stroll by with their kids on vacation
       F
Scrape decades of lead paint and salt air off porches
  Am
Alone with my thoughts
 
And a breeze off the ocean
      G
And I smile for the first time this year
 
G A B C D E
 
[Chorus]
         F
I walk alone
                C
In the mist of the evening
          F                     C
Under the glow of the Paramount sign
  C     C/B Am                    F
I watch the sky turn violent with light
                 G
On the fourth of July
 
[Verse 2]
           C
I've been spending my nights in a dive off the boardwalk
  F
A sad open mic
 
I've been playing these damn songs
     Am
They yell out for Springsteen, or Dylan, or Mitchell
    G
But these, these are all that I've got
 
G A B C D E
 
[Chorus]
         F
I walk alone
                C
In the mist of the evening
          F                     C
Under the glow of the Paramount sign
  C     C/B Am                    F
I watch the sky turn violent with light
                 G
On the fourth of July
 
[Bridge]
Em                        F
  I've picked up smoking again
         C                         G
'Cause I like how it makes all the days go by fast
Em                  F
  Picked up smoking again
            C                         G
'Cause something's gonna kill me some day
           Am
So why not that?
             G
I'm smoking again
             C
'Cause I like it
    G                F        Am
Why can't I just like it?
                  G A B C D E
I'm smoking again
 
[Chorus]
         F
I walk alone
                C
In the mist of the evening
          F                     C
Under the glow of the Paramount sign
  C     C/B Am                    F
I watch the sky turn violent with light
                 G
On the fourth of July
 
Am
