Tonart: C major•
Verse 1
C
There's a girl named Pearl
F
C
pumping premium off the Jersey Pike
Dm
With a smile like Dottie Hepburn
G
Em
if you know how to act right
Dm
There's last chance seekers
G
with out -of -state plates
Dm
G
Looking for a little piece of heaven
C
F
there around old Pearly's gates
Bb
And light lines split the morning
G
Em
and made the sky vibrate.
C
Now the dark dawn withered
F
as we glanced towards the
There was a new sun rising,
Dm
G
but to some just a familiar wonder.
Dm
And then the clouds exploded,
G
rain came with a crash,
Dm
G
Folks traded for canoes
C
with their used Pontiacs.
F
Bb
But most got refused,
G
there were too many stacks,
And the most confused
Em
C
Em
were the ones left with Cadillacs.
Now telephone poles spilt, split,
Bb
Em
and spit out live sparks
World trade centers collided
down into Needle Park
Pyramids and palaces
were likewise bound to fall
No long -standing landmark
C
was even half -recognizable at all
F
Yet the old house still stands,
C
but now it's shifted to a tilt
You can still see the water line
Dm
G
from when the river spilled
Em
Dm
G
Over the banks and into the valley,
Dm
G
down through town and right up my alley
C
It could have been the end,
F
Bb
G
or just time to clean it up again.
G
C
Well, when shorelines change,
G
Fm
will beaches still resist
F
C
the pounding waves?
Will preachers still persist,
Dm
G
or no one have a whole
G
Even when the mountains derange,
Dm
G
I want to find you to see
C
F
That you're still around,
Bb
steadfast and relatively free
