LOS LOBOS "Short Side Of Nothing" (David Hidalgo/Louie Perez) (Intro and instrumental break are both same as verse chord changes.) (VERSE) Dreams wash down the gutter All my hopes in vain Crows up on the rooftop Laughing out my name (CHORUS) Here I am on the short side of nothing Here I am on the short side of nothing (VERSE) We danced all night as life stood by We told another lie Found a spot down by the roadside There I closed my eyes (CHORUS) Here I am on the short side of nothing Here I am on the short side of nothing All alone all alone Can’t find my way home (INSTRUMENTAL) (VERSE) Summer has come and the heat hangs low No escape in sight Sirens scream and lovers moan Just like any other night (CHORUS) Here I am on the short side of nothing Here I am on the short side of nothing All alone all alone Can’t find my way home
