These Streets

 D              F#m   G         
Cross the border, into the big bad 
A7
world
 D                              
Where it takes you about an hour 
          F#m
just to cross the road,
         G                      A7
Just to stumble across another poor 
old sole,
 D                               
From the dreary old lanes to the 
F#m
High St madness,
 G                          A7
I fight with my brain to believe my 
eyes
     D                           
And it's harder than you think to 
  F#m
believe this sadness,
    G                              
It creeps up my spine and haunts me
  A7
 through the night


[Pre-Chorus]

 Bm7
Life is good, and the girls are 
gorgeous,
 G
Suddenly the air smells much greener
 now
 Bm7
And I'm walking around with a half 
pack of cigarettes
 A7
Searching for the change I've lost 
somehow


[Chorus]

 D                   F#m
These Streets, have too many names 
for me
 G                            
I'm used to Glenfield Road and 
           A7
spending my time down in Orchy

 D                     F#m        
I'll get used to this eventually I
  G       A7
 know, I know


[Verse]

 D           F#m     G           
Where'd the days go when all we 
        A7
did was play
 D                               
And the stress that we were under 
         F#m
wasn't stress at all,
 G                          
Just a run and a jump into a 
  A7
harmless fall
 D                              
From walking by a high-rise to a 
  F#m
landmark square,
         G                     
You see millions of people with 
  A7
millions of cares
 D                                 
And I stuggle to the train to make 
 F#m
my way home
 G                            A7
I look at the people as they sit 
there alone


[Pre-Chorus]

 Bm7
Life is good and the sun is shining,
 G
Everybody floats to their ideal 
place
 Bm7
And the children all smile as the 
boats shuffle by them,
 A7
Trying to pretend that they've got 
some space.


[Chorus] (x2)

 D                   F#m
These Streets, have too many names 
for me
 G                            
I'm used to Glenfield Road and 
           A7
spending my time down in Orchy
 D                     F#m        
I'll get used to this eventually I
  G       A7
 know, I know
