Standing on the road with your eyes full of goodness baby
D                                    G                C
Hold me down there like a saint in the street

So I Bought the ticket and took the train
D                                 G         C
  Headed west towards East LA
D                                          G        C
Wouldn't you meet me there if you could

     D                              G                           C

 As you walk away from something that has just been found
 
     Em                G             C
Oh won't you remember me
     Em                G             C
Oh won't you remember me
     Em         G                            C
 open your eyes there's more to see
       Em                G             C
And won't you remember me
