[Verse 1]
Em                                                          Am
As I walk through the streets of my new city
D                                                 G
my back feeling much better, I suppose
Em                                           Am
I've reclaimed the use of my imagination
D                                                G
for better or for worse, I've yet to know
Em                                                       Am
but I always knew you'd be the one to understand me,
D                                                     G
I guess that's why it took so long to get things right.
Em
Suddenly I'm lost
Am
On my street, On my block
D
Oh why, Oh why
G                            C
Oh why haven't you been there for me?
D                           G
Can't you see, I'm losing my mind this time?
Em                     Am
This time it's for real, I can see
D
All the trees are turning red

The beggars near bodegas grin at me

I think they want something 
                                             E
I close my eyes, I tell myself to breathe

[Chorus]
G
And be calm, be calm
C                                                      G
I know you feel like you are breaking down
Em                        Am                     C
Well I know that it gets so hard sometimes
D
Be calm

[Verse 2]
Em                                           Am
I'm scared that everyone is out to get me
D                                                  G
"These days before you speak to me you pause."
Em                                           Am
"I always see you looking out your window."
D                                                  G
"After all, you lost your band, you left your mom."
Em                                     Am
Now every single crack, every pain that I pass,
D                                               G
says I should either leave or pick it up
Em
But with every single buck I've made
Am
I'm saddled with bad luck that came
D
the moment I was baptized
D
or when I found out one day I'm gonna die

if only I could find my people or my place in life

then when they come to 'carolin'

so loud, so bright, the theremin

will lead us to a chorus 
                                                                  E
where we'll all rejoice and sing a song that goes:

[Ulangi Chorus]

[Bridge]
Em                 D         Bm     Am
I don't remember much that night,
G                      D                 G  D
Just walking, thinking fondly of you
Em           D           Bm        Am G
Thinking how the worst is yet to come
D                            G           D   G
From that street corner came a song
G                         C
And I can't remember the man,
D                                G
The panhandler or his melody.
Em                     D           Bm   Am         D
The words exchanged had far exceeded any change I'd given thee.

[Ulangi Chorus]
