C / C9/bb / F/a / F
Storefront, streetcars rattle
One more losing battle
  Dm.    G                   C / C9/bb / F/a / F
What is Columbus Avenue to you now?

C / C9/bb / F/a / F
Last call tattoo parlor
Deathbed sword swallower
  Dm.    G                  C / C9/bb / F/a / F
What is Columbus Avenue to you now?

Dm       
The place where you failed
F         C
To make your story go over
Dm.     
The place where you bailed
F.    C
And let the bottom drag you under
    Gm   F C / C9/bb / F/a / F
Drag you under

Cheap shot paranoia
Exiled from Victoria

What is Columbus Avenue to you now?

Dm       
The place where you failed

To make your story go over
Dm    
The place where you bailed
F.    C
And let the bottom drag you under
    Gm   F C / C9/bb / F/a / F
Drag you under

F.           Dm
Where you moved with a ghastly precision
F        Dm
To the echoes of bones in the air
C.                 Gm
Finding hope in an X-ray division
F        C / C9/bb / F/a / F
Of a world that's not there

Cafe sinners bother you
Empty pockets follow you

What is Columbus Avenue to you now?

Dm       
The place where you failed
F         C
To make your story go over

And let the bottom drag you under
    Gm   F C / C9/bb / F/a / F
Drag you under
  Dm    G            F      C
What is Columbus Avenue to you now?
