[F]

[Verse 2]
[Am]I live where the neighbors[G] yell
And their [D]music comes up
[F]through [Am]the floor
I live where the neigh[G]bors yell
And their [D]music wakes me [F]up

Four blocks from [G]the steel mill blasts
[D]I paint my claim up o[F]n the w[Am]all
Four blocks from [G]the steel mill blasts

[Verse 5]
From my end of [G]the southside drag
[Em]It's a common thought
to [Am]call [G]the cops
[F]Further west it's bee[G]n gentrified
They [Em]turned biker bars into [Am]flower shops

[Verse 6]
[F]I kind of miss those Harley[G] guy[Em]s

[G]arms
