[Intro 1]
[G][D][A][D]
[G][D][A][D]
[G][D][A][D]
[G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]Pedro [D]lives out of the Wilshire Ho[A]tel[D]
he looks out a window [G]without [D]glass[A][D]
The walls [G]are made of [D]cardboard
news[A]papers on his [D]feet
And his father beats him
'cause [G]he's too tired [D]to [A]beg[D]

[Verse 2]
He's got 9 brothers [G]and [D]sisters
they're [A]brought up on their [D]knees
it's hard to run [G]when a coat [D]hanger
beats you on the [A]thighs[D]
Pedro dreams of [G]being [D]older
and [A]killing the old [D]man
but that's a slim [G]chance
[D]he's going to the boule[A]vard[D]

[Chorus 1]
He's going to end [G]up,[D]
on the [A]dirty boule[D]vard
He's going [G]out, [D]to the dirty [A]boulevard[D]
He's going [G]down, [D]to the dirty [A]boulevard[D]
[G][D][A][D]

[Verse 3]
This room [G]cost [D]2,000 dollars a month
you can [A]believe it man [D]it's true
somewhere a landlord's [G]laughing
[D]till he wets his [A]pants[D]
No one here dreams of [G]being a [D]doctor
or a lawyer or [A]anything[D]
they dream of dealing on [G]the dirty [D]boulevard
[A][D]

[Verse 4]
Give me your [G]hungry,
[D]your tired your [A]poor I'll piss [D]on 'em
That's what the [G]Statue of [D]Bigotry says
[A]You[D]r poor h[G]uddled masses[D],
let's club 'em to [A]death and [D]get it over with
And just dump 'em [G]on the [D]boulevard[A][D]

[Chorus 2]
Get em' [G]out, [D]on the dirty bou[A]levard[D]
Going [G]out, [D]to the dirty [A]boulevard[D]
He's going [G]down, [D]on the dirty [A]boulevard[D]
Going [G]out[D][A][D]

[Verse 5]
[G]Outside [D]it's a bright night
there's [A]opera at [D]Lincoln Center
Movie stars [G]arrive [D]by [A]limousine[D]
The klieg [G]lights [D]shoot up
over the skyline of [A]Manhattan[D]
but the lights are out [G]on the [D]Mean Streets
[A][D]

[Verse 6]
A small kid [G]stands by the Lin[D]coln Tunnel
[A]he'[D]s selling plastic ros[G]es for a buc[D]k
[A][D]
The traffic's backed [G]up to 3[D]9th street
[A]The[D] TV whores[G] are calling
the [D]cops out for a [A]suck[D]

[Verse 7]
And back at the [G]Wilshire,
[D]Pedro sits there dream[A]ing[D]
He's found a book on [G]magic in a [D]garbage can
[A]He [D]looks at the pictur[G]es
and [D]stares up at the cracked [A]ceiling[D]
"At the count of [G]3" he says,
"I hope [D]I can disapp[A]ear"
[D]And fly, fly away

[Chorus 3]
[G]fro[D]m this dirty boulev[A]ard[D]
I want to [G]fly [D]from this dir[A]ty boulevar[D]d
I want to [G]fly [D]from the dir[A]ty boulevar[D]d
I want to fly, [G]fly, fly, [D]fly
from the [A]dirty boule[D]vard

[Outro 1]
I want to [G]fly [D]away
[A]I w[D]ant to fly[G][D]
[A]Fly[D], fly away[G][D]
[A]I w[D]ant to fly[G][D]
[A]Fly[D], fly away (f[G]ly, [D]fly, fly aw[A]ay)[D]
Fly, fly, [G]fly [D](fly, fly, [A]fly a[D]way)
Fly fly a[G]way [D](fly, fly, [A]fly a[D]way)
Fly a[G]way [D](fly, fly, [A]fly a[D]way)
