Intro
Verse
Things were s

And I had be

You know I've run so

And looked into the
empty faces of the p
eople of the night
And
something is j
ust not r
ight
Refrain

hat I gotta get out of here
I'm so a

treets are crowded
There's something s

I lived there about a
year and I never once f

And now I'm
telling you
That they were
not the nice kind
And it's been so long since
I have f

That's the reason that I
gotta get out of here
