Verse 2
Rose said life changed about five years ago
Her boyfriend left, she started drinking alone
It soothed her pain and freed her soul
The world was harsh, she felt so alone

Livin on the street
Some days there isn't much to eat
Wonderin where to go to get high
She will get by
Verse 3
Dan said he wants to find a new life
His friends are dyin before their time
Swirling from morning into the night
The world is changing in front of his eyes
Chorus
Livin on the street
Some days there isn't much to eat
Wonderin where to go to get high
He will get by
Bridge
C                      G            B7         C 
I watch from the sidelines, their daily life
G             D                 C
Helplessly witness, their decline
Chorus
Livin on the street
Some days there isn't much to eat
Wonderin where to go to get high
They will get by
