Can't Get Through

B                  F#
Three tower blocks glinting

in the midday sun.

Two ice cubes melting
B                   F#  F# E
in a glass of white rum.
B                   F#
Head for the places that
B              F#
I've never gone.


F#                      E       B  F#

Eight beggers choking
B             F#  F# E
on a slice of red pie.
B             F#
Two rivers freezing
B                   F#  F# E
in a broken goodbye.
B                   F#
No hesitation,
B                F#
just a kick in the eye.


F#                      E       B  F#

My head is reeling from too much choice.
