The recording is a little out of tune, but it's closer to standard E tuning than it is to Eb. C# F# When I was younger I chased butterflies D C# B now I look around and realize A G D there ain't no butterflies around here no more. Now theres more people everywhere, and on ground that once was bare they've built condos and shopping malls. E F# and on streets I walked where the sun shined D shadows grow as buildings climb, A G B C# D and I get older getting colder every day. The concrete stretches for miles They put it up in different styles, but it still looks pretty ugly to me.... [riff] B E D [whistling part] B B C# D D C# A G D What a Pity, They've fucked up this city where I grew up. Now it's grown too big and there's no room left for me. The rest is a repeat of these parts. End on A.
