This old world's not much better than it was

C E7
The joke's on you, ah then what do you do
Bb/C
Model T's and Chevies just loaded with heavies
Ab/Bb
Shining faces like morning roses, aglow with their noses

Pressed on your window, just waiting to shine
C E7
Your concrete shoes, to the piano roll blues
