   Bm                  A
He sleeps all alone on Second Street
       Bm                     A
With a roof over his head and food to eat
    D                     G
But he can hardly make it day to day cause
D                      G                            A
Everything he wants is six blocks away   six blocks away
           Bm                 A
He's got a regular job and it pays the rent
     Bm            A 
In a donut shop on 3rd and 10th
       D                          G
But he doesn't understand why she turned him away
D               G                                     A        
He can hear her heart beat six blocks away six blocks away
D                G
Six blocks away dirty old street
D               G
Six blocks away he can hear her heart beat
D               G
Six blocks away dirty old street
D               G                                     A
Six blocks away he can hear her heart beat six blocks away
 
SOLO

   Bm                       A 
He walks real fast down the dirty street
   Bm                       A
He turns his eyes from the people he meets
   D             G
It hurts so bad  what can he say
D                      G                            A
He sends her a message six blocks away  six blocks away
D                G
Six blocks away dirty old street
D               G
Six blocks away he can hear her heart beat
D               G
Six blocks away dirty old street
D               G                                     A
Six blocks away he can hear her heart beat six blocks away
D          G   D G   D          G     D  G  D  G  D  G D  G  D
Six blocks away      six blocks away
