chorus
G C F Bb D


I WALK THE ZOMBIE WALK
THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD
AND TRACE THE STEPS I PAVED
TO THE PLACES I ONCE STOOD
I’M SENTIMENTAL JUST LIKE ANY OTHER FOOL
I TRY TO WIPE THE LIPSTICK WRITTEN ON MY FACE

I HEAR THE NOON TIME WHISTLES
FROM THE FACTORIES
THE SCENT OF COFFEE INTERRUPTS MY WAYWARD DREAMS
I WATCH THE SIDEWALK SLOWLY
EAT ITSELF AWAY AND DISAPPEAR AND INTERFERE MY RECOLLECTION

STUMBLE PAST THE BROKEN AVENUE THE BROKEN AVENUE
STUMBLE PAST THE BROKEN AVENUE THE BROKEN AVENUE

I WALK THE SOMBER WALK
THROUGH THESE VACANT STREETS
AND SEE THE MEMORIES PRINTED ON LIKE ASPHALT SHEETS
I SEE THE DIMES AND NICKELS IN THEY’RE RESTING PLACE
I TRY TO LOSE THAT STEADY FROWN UPON MY FACE

I HEAR THE RAINDROPS TAPPING ON THE BALCONIES
THE LIGHTS REFLECTED ON THE SIGN ABOVE THAT SAYS FOR LEASE
THE CITYS MELTING AND I’M TRYING TO FIND MY PEACE
I DUCK INTO AN EMPTY DOORWAY WAITING FOR THE RAIN TO CEASE

STUMBLE PAST THE BROKEN AVENUE THE BROKEN AVENUE
STUMBLE PAST THE BROKEN AVENUE THE BROKEN AVENUE
