These Days 
Bon Jovi

Intro: C - D | Em (x6)

      C                      D                        Em
I was walking around, just a face in the crowd try to keep myself out of the rain
      C                    D                        Em
Saw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam crown wondered if I might end up the same
          C                 D    Em                 C           
There's a man out on the corner, singing old songs about change 
                    D                    G
Everybody got their cross to bare, these days

         C                D              Em
She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams
     C                    D                    Em
To a motel room on the boulevard I guess she's trying to be James Dean
       C              D          Em             C                      D                   Em
She's seen all the disciples and all the 'wanna be's', no one wants to be themselves these days
              C               D               G
Still there's nothing to hold on to but these days

CHORUS
      C        D                  Em           C                  D               G
These days the stars ain't out of reach, these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no
      C              D             G                 C                       D                 G
These days are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age, there ain't nobody left but us these days

      C            D              Em 
Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly
       C            D                Em
From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes
    C                 D               Em                 C
His momma said he was crazy - he said momma "I've got to try" 
                                  D                                    G 
Don't you know that all my heroes died, and I guess I rather die f f f fade away - yeah

CHORUS

C Am C Am

C         Am                   C              Am
   I know Rome's still burning   though the times have changed
C       Am                  D                                   (C)
   This world keeps turning round and round and round and round these days

      C        D                  Em            C                  D               G
These days the stars ain't out of reach - These days there ain't a ladder on the streets no no
      C              D               G                C
These days are fast, love don't last it's a graceless age
                    D                   G
Even innocence has caught the midnight train
      C        D                  Em            C                  D             G
These days the stars ain't out of reach - These days there ain't a ladder on the streets no no
      C              D             G                  C
These days are fast, nothing lasts there is no time to waste
                     D                G
There ain't nobody left to take the blame
C                     D                  G
    There ain't nobody left but us these days
C - D | Em  C                     D                 G
               There ain't nobody left but us these days
