Side Streets Chords

F C Fmaj7


Bb		      	  Am
The neighborhood that I live in,
         Bb     Am         Dm
I've always seen as home.
Bb		      	  Am
At certain times at the evening,
    Bb     Am      Dm
It's like a no-go zone.


      Bb		     Am	   	    Gm         C
Got cash in my pocket to last the weekend.
     Bb		     	Am	   	      Gm        	C
And I've got features I quite like And don't mind keeping.


 		   Gm      C 	Dm
But I still walk the side streets home,
 	      Gm     C 	Dm
Even when I'm on my own.
 		Bb		Am	        Gm	  C
If I let myself believe all the bad press and horror stories,
 			F
I wouldn't set a foot outside.


Bb		      	  Am
You say I live in a bubble,
         Bb     Am         Dm
I find the bubble's best.
Bb		      	  Am
At a faint whiff of trouble,
         Bb     Am         Dm
Just turn and head due west.

      Bb		     Am	   	    Gm         C
Quite light on my feet if I ever need be,
      Bb		     Am	   	    Gm         C
As I zip down the street, No one ever sees me.


		   Gm      C 	Dm
That's why I walk the side streets home,
	      Gm     C 	Dm
Even when I'm on my own.
		Bb		Am	        Gm	  C
If I let myself believe all the bad press and all the stories,
			F
I wouldn't set a foot outside.


Bb		      	  Am
I'm tempting fate, 

(I know - tell me about it)
Bb		      	  Am
So nonchalant,

(I know and I don't doubt it)
Dm	       Am     Gm	     C
I'll probably get it tomorrow.


		   Gm      C 	Dm
Till then I walk the side streets home,
	      Gm     C 	Dm
Even when I'm on my own.
		Bb		Am	        Gm	  C
If I let myself believe...


		   Gm      C 	Dm
(Side streets home)

(On my own)

Believe...
