Last Of My Kind

G

[Verse 1]

G
I couldn't be happy in the city at night
                                G7
You can't see the stars for the neon lights
 C
Sidewalk's dirty and the river is worse
 G
Underground trains all run in reverse
 Dsus2
Nobody here can dance like me
 G
Everybody clapping on the one and the three

[Chorus]

   C                G
Am I the last of my kind?
   C                G
Am I the last of my kind?

[Verse 2]

G
So many people with so much to do
G                  G7
Winter so cold my hands turn blue
 C
Old men sleeping on the filthy ground
     G
They spend their whole day just walking around
 Dsus2
Nobody else here seems to care
 G
They walk right past them like they ain't even there

[Chorus]

   C                G
Am I the last of my kind?
   C                G     G/F#
Am I the last of my kind?

[Verse 3]

 Em                         C            G     G/F#
Daddy said the river would always lead me home
        Em                  C
But the river can't take me back in time
    G
And Daddy's dead and gone
    Dsus2                            Am                    Am/B
The family farm's a parking lot for Walton's five and dime

[Chorus]

   C                 G
Am I the last of my kind?
   C                 G
Am I the last of my kind?

[Verse 4]

 G
Tried to go to college but I didn't belong
G                       G7
Everything I said was either funny or wrong
 C
Laughed at my boots, laughed at my jeans
 G
Laughed when they gave me amphetamines
 Dsus2
Left me alone in a bad part of town
 G
Thirty-six hours to come back down

[Chorus]

   C                 G
Am I the last of my kind?
   C                 G     G/F#
Am I the last of my kind?

[Verse 5]

 Em                  C                   G     G/F#
Mama says God won't give you too much to bear
 Em                   C
That might be true in Arkansas
         G
But I'm a long, long way from there
  Dsus2                               Am                   Am/B
That whole world's an old and faded picture in my mind

[Chorus]

   C                 G
Am I the last of my kind?
   C                 G
Am I the last of my kind?
   C                 G
Am I the last of my kind?
   C                 G
Am I the last of my kind?
