Lincoln Park Pirates

Am                   Em       Am
The street lamps are on in Chicago 
tonite
    F          G        Am
and lovers are gazin at stars,
    F
the stores are all closin'
    Am                      Em    
and Daley is dozin' and the fatman
                 E7
 is counting the cars;
        Am             Em        
There's more cars than places to put
Am
 'em he said
    F     G             Am      
but I got room for them all, so 
F
round 'em up boys
  Am                           Em 
I want some more toys, hit the lot
                E7
 by the grocery store


(Chorus)

--to me|--  

Am      G      Am
WAY HEY TOW'EM AWAY
    F            G           Am
The Lincoln Park pirates are we;
     F           Am
from Wilmette to Gary
        F            Am
There's none that so heavy
       Em                 E7
and we always collect our fee
Am      G       Am
WAY-HEY tow 'em away

   F           G               Am
we plunder the streets of your town,
      F        Am             F  
be it Edsel or Chevy, there's no 
       Am
car too heavy
    E7                      Am
And no one can make us shut down.


Verse 2

Am            Em           Am
We break into cars when we gotta
     F            G          Am
with pick axe and hammer and saw,
     F                      Am
they say this garage has no license
    Em                    E7
but little care I for the law
       Am          Em           
all my drivers are friendly and 
Am
courteous;
           F           G           
their good manners you always will 
Am
get
          F             Am        
for they all are recent graduates 
         Em              E7
from the charm scholl in Joliet


(Chorus)


Verse 3
    Am              Em     
And when all of the cars are 
  Am
collected,
    F            G           Am
and all of their fenders are ruined
          F                 Am    
then I'll tow every boat in 
                Em           E7
belmont harbor to the Lincoln park 
Lagoon
    Am        Em            Am
and when I've collected the ransom
    F            G               
and sunk all the ones that won't 
Am
yield
          F                      
then i'll tow all the planes that 
     Am
are blocking the runways
   Em                 E7
at midway, O'Hare and Meigs Field
