Bro - ken glass,       rust - y nails,
          Eb     Fm         G        G7
Where the wild_ vi - olets grow.

         Cm           Ab          Cm          Ab
Say good-bye to the railroad, the mad dogs of summer,
    Cm2        G7           Cm2                 /
And e - very - thing that I know.

Chorus:
      Ab                                Cm
         What some men will do here for diamonds,
        Ab                              Cm
         What some men will do here for gold.
        Ab                                      Cm
         They're wounded, but they just keep on climbing
             Ab                       G7
         And sleep by the side of the road.
Bridge:
          Cm           Ab          Eb           Fm
There's a hole in the lad - der, a fence we can climb,
Fm/Ab    Cm                G7        Cm
Mad as a hat - ter; you're thin as a dime.
   Cm         Ab          Eb          Fm
Go out to the meadow; the hills are a-green,
Fm/Ab     Cm        G7         Cm
Sing me a rain-bow, steal me a dream.

Verse 2:
     Cm       Ab                  Cm          Ab
Small-time Na-poleon's         shat-tered his knees,
       Eb           Fm          G        G7
But he stays in the sad-dle for Rose.
    Cm      Ab               Cm           Ab
And all his dis-ciples, they shave in the gutter,
         Cm2              G7           Cm2              /
And they ga - ther what's left  of his clothes.

              Ab                                Cm

         What some men will do here for gold.
        Ab                                      Cm
         They're wounded, but they just keep on climbing
             Ab                       G7
         And sleep by the side of the road.
