Standard (EADGBE)

Chorus

Oh no where'd we go wrong

drink a couple 40's and we'll sing this song

rock to the beat of the rhythm of the street

and turn ourselves around

Ran into a friend just the other day

he bought himself a nine and joined a gang

he said "Patty I got this all wrong,

I hope this don't end up in one of your songs

bu the police are hot on my trail

by the end of the evening I'll be in jail

can you post bail?"

and I said oh no friend your crimes are your own

when you get out you'll have a home with me

if you can just stay off the streets

I'm thinking-

Chorus

Then I saw some homeboys from school

it's been a couple years but still we're cool

they always thought that I was the fool

now they do anything to get high

got all the drugs that money can buy

I'm singing-

Chorus

Turn towards a friend

when you need help

when you just can't help yourself

someone will be there with open arms

someone to releive you from harm

cos we just can't do this alone

I'm thinking-

Chorus

(It's just those three chords the whole time)
