Downtown L.A. is a depressing place
        D                       Am
You can see young men with deep lines in their face
Am                             G
They could all be something if somebody cared
    D                         Am
But nobody knows they're even down there

G                        Am
Old woman walking with a sack on her back
G                             Am
Picking up the garbage people put out back
G                        Am
Men down there trying to walk the line
G                        D         Am
Trading their soul for a bottle of wine

Am                    G
In the inner city it ain't no good
       D                   Am
It's a long, long way from Hollywood
Am                       G
Bad kind of people got a hold of the street
         D                  Am
They got something that the poor people need

   G                       Am
At two in the morning they bust your head
G                         Am
Fat chance walking you'll end up dead
G                                 Am
It's the law of the jungle with a gun and a knife
       G                    D         Am
If you stay long enough you lose your life

Am                G
Man down there he couldn't be lying
       D                             Am
He was sleeping in the street and he couldn't keep from crying
Am                       G
Said he'd been there for twenty one years
            D                           Am
Through the bars and the brawls and the blues and the tears

G                     Am
Prop up the front the back falls down
G                         Am
All around the canyons of L.A. town
G                               Am
When he asked me for a dollar I looked him in his face
G                  D          Am
Downtown L.A. is a depressing place
