"My New Neighborhood" by John Gorka 1991, from "Jack's Crows"

Standard tuning - the only unusual chord might be the D+4 (x54030) which is the
C form slid up two frets. It's a great chord! 
       x32010  x54030  320003
Intro:  C       D+4      G        C               D+4 

     C         D+4   G
This neighborhood is full of mutts

C                D+4
Barking kids and arguments

C      D+4       G
People yell from block to block

    C             D+4
And quiet down by ten o'clock

     C          D+4        G
They blow their horns in a kind of code

    C                 D+4 
And gun their engines in the road

C         D+4        G
With both hands they check their hair

C               D+4
Waiting for the girls downstairs

CHORUS:
         022000     020000
C    D+4  Em          Em7   C  D+4   Em   Em7
In my new neighborhood,     I  live  here

C  D+4  Em                D+4
My new  neighborhood this year


This neighborhood has corner bars
Family stores and teenage cars
The old kids run on gasoline
All lit up by the coke machine

There's jumprope for the younger ones
And those who work and play with guns
One is working on his right
To kill a shadow's appetite

CHORUS


Well, another day and another fight
Just two neighbors in the night
Wanda punched and Ruben cried
And Wanda, she got locked outside

And the sirens will come through again
And none of this looks good in rain
The steel looms like a dinosaur
A train goes by and cries for more

From my new neighborhood... CHORUS

repeat CHORUS
