Am 
Walking on the streets of DC, 
         C 
On the East Coast where I live, 
                    Am  
You say what's the problem 
            C  
What's with this angry kid 
                  Am  
You don't like the way I walk, 
       G 
or the way I talk,  
       C 
or the way I swing my hands,  
                  Am 
You don't like the words I speak,  
       G 
or the thoughts I think,  
       C 
And I know you'll never understand  
 
]Chorus[
 
 F        C 
You know 
    G 
On the East Coast, we ride until we die 
 F     C        G 
You know,  
                  F            C 
Well there's a place inside my mind,  
          G 
Yeah, a place you'll never find, 
            F                C               
There's a place inside my mind 
 
          G 
Walk this way 
 
You know

               Am                  
Wouldn't it be perfect  
     C 
if I could sit with you? 
             Am 
And we would change a thing or 2,  
     C 
we'd change a thing or 2, 
         Am 
We would change the way you think,  
         C 
we would change the way I think,  
         Am 
We would change the way they think  
               C 
but we're not changin' anything 
 
]Chorus[
 
            G 
We'll leave today 
 
You know

               F     G      Am 
'Cause on the East Coast we ride,  
 F        G       E 
until the day we die 
 
                 F               C 
Well there's a place inside my mind,  
           G 
Yeah, a place you'll never find, 
           F                C            G 
There's a place inside my mind, Walk this way 
 
           F                C 
There's a place inside my mind,  
           G 
Yeah, a place you'll never find, 
           F                C                 G 
There's a place inside my mind, We'll leave today 
   Am
