[Verse 1]
D G
I’m going to be cheerful like Salman Rushdie
D A
I’m gonna feel comfortable in my own body
D G
I’m gonna be able to tell a story
Em G
Till all the diamonds are extracted from the earth
Em A
Until the jeweler’s loupe can tell me exactly what it’s worth
D G
I’m gonna have courage like Candice Bergen
D A
I’m gonna listen for the ventriloquist until I’ve heard him
D G
I’ll set fire to the dollhouse, leave it burning
Em G
And all the policemen that tried to scare me straight
Em A
Those dummies can talk and talk and talk and talk but they’ll just have to
wait
[Chorus]
G F#m
I got jumped in by some drunk kids
G
While we were dope sick
F#7
You got sexed in
G
You got your lip split
F#m
I got my ass kicked
Em A
On the Avenue of Time
D
Victory City
[Verse 2]
D G
I want to stand tall like Joey Strummer
D A
I wanna live my whole life like it’s the last day of summer
D G
You looked down at your shoes and asked for my number
Em G
Said you’d call me if the moonlight ever hurt
Em A
Said if you came running after me baby, well, it’d be in reverse
[Chorus]
G F#m
I got tempted to just give in
G
On a park bench
F#7
Felt the earth spin
G
I just didn’t
F#m
I saw your foot prints
Em A
On the Avenue of Time
Em A
I wanna look you in the eye
Em A
Even if we’re going blind
D
