Chorus 2x
           Bm      G
And it's a sad sad story
       D                   A
One of death and crime and glory
       Bm      G       F#
Is the one I'm telling you
           Bm            G
And in the middle of the night
            D        A 
The bullets fill the sky
         Bm         G       F#
Cause in Wilmington that is true


Verse 1
Bm
   Long time been running
G                 F#
   Through my hometown
Bm
Where a street divides it's all up
       G              F#
Into a bullet-riddled town
             Bm
And you could, you can hear them coming
G                        F#
Through a transistor radio
     Bm
As I walk through the streets where I started this dream
         G                 F#
It's the place that I call home


Chorus 2x


Verse 2
Bm
   Long time been running
G                    F#
East and West battle ground
Bm
   Where George Blanko took a side at a young age
    G                      F#      
Was locked up since he was twelve
Bm
   And it's a big human wreckage
G                   F# 
No matter where you go
     Bm
As I walk through the streets where I started this dream
         G                 F#
It's the place that I call home
