F  Am  F  Am

      F 
I was bruised and battered I couldn't tell what I felt 
      Ami
I was unrecognizable to myself 
       F
saw my reflection in a window and didn't know my own face
                   Ami
oh brother are-you gonna leave me wasting-like-this
                       B    F  C  C
on the streets of Philadelphia 

B  F  C  C 
          (lie lie lie lah lie lie lie lah lie…)

I walked the avenue 'til my legs felt like stone
I heard voices of friends vanished and gone
At night I hear the blood in my veins 
just as black and whispery as the rain
on the streets of Philadelphia
 
B  F  C  C 
          (lie lie lie lah lie lie lie lah lie... )
 
B                   Dmi
Ain't no angel gonna greet me
B                     F
It's just you and I my friend
Ami                  B
and my clothes don't fit me no more I walked a
C
thousand miles just to slip this skin
 
The night is falling, I'm lying awake
I can feel myself fading away
so receive me brother with your fateless kiss or
will we leave each other alone like this
                       B
on the streets of Philadelphia...
