Verse 1
C
Sometimes it was quiet enough
to scare you senseless
Am
The streets were filthy
C
Peels of lemons, limes and orchids
Security tags entangled
Am
Em
C
in a great weave of humanity
G
C
I believe if you were simply existing
on the west side
Am
G
You look guilty, and you were guilty
F
C
But only guilty of looking for the door
I wonder if our species will evolve
to birth our babies
Am
Much more able to survive
C
Like the baby giraffe
unfolding herself like origami
Am
right from her mother's womb
G
instantly running from the
F
waiting cheetahs
C
Does she remember
this first taste of terror in
her new throat?
Am
G
I know I do I am not angry
F
It just explains why
Am
F
C
I ended up on the west side
So long ago I witnessed a young woman
Find herself in the road
when she shouldn't be
Am
In a dan gerous intersection
C
There were cars honking at her
She had no memory of how she got there
Am
She was not high,
G
had not taken enough drugs or whiskey
F
Cause all it takes is pain
An overwhelming pain
C
Dm
And pain knows what to do,
C
go to the west side
G
F
And oh, what is more beautiful
Em
than what really happened
Dm
What truly happened
C
there on the west side?
One day I feel like butter
And the next I'm
Am
more aligned with a knife
C
You hear me talking about avoidance,
how it breeds the worst anxiety
Am
Well, I can still see the stain,
G
and remember the smoke wall
F
Where no one could find me
C
I have tried to find my way home
Found that trying to find most anything
Am
Leads to loneliness
C
Still I have tried to find the deep hole
To fall into for the last time
Am
I have tried and tried
G
To find a resemblance
F
Resemblance of a past
Em
Resemblance of a past
Dm
But there's nothing left
C
Left on the west side
G
F
And oh, it is more beautiful
Em
Than what really happened
C
Dm
What truly happened
C
There on the west side
G
F
And oh, it is more beautiful
Em
than what really happened
Dm
What truly happened
there on the west side
