Gon' take you down by the river, smell the gunpowder, hear the ghosts sing.
There's kids in the shadows drinking by the water, smoking and blowing in smoke graves.
Gon' take you down to the river, learn about the viper [G] and the mad [E] dog wine.
Blood stains will make your soul shiver, feel a little cold chill down your [Em] spine.
[E] Gon' cross the Santa Fe Bridge, got a pocket full of quarters and a fake ID.
Slip a little poison on the warhead sight, a bunch of bones sing the way of key.
Gon' cross the Santa Fe Bridge, got the whole class keepin' their lines.
Nobody's finished when the shots ring out, stealing a young [A] soul's vital [E] signs.
Undertakers, they look like crows, red-eyed and dressed in black.
Undertaker say you cross that river, there's a chance [G] that you won't come [B] back.
Undertaker's the bearer of them bones, way over yonder [E] by the railroad tracks.
Undertaker, they look like crows, red [Em]-eyed and dressed in black.
[G]
[E] Blackbird flies through the broken city, the streets weep for the lost ones.
Old folks say it's a crime, shame, kids are dying by a drug gun.
Dogs howl in the scarred old city, they're running wild [A] out in the [Em] rain.
We all cry for those who [E] bleached, shooting a little [G] thrill into their [E] veins.
