These Streets (Paolo Nutini)

Chords Used: D-F#m-G-A-Bm7

F#m: 2-4-4-2-2-2
Bm7: 2-2-4-4-3-2



[D] [F#m] [G] [A]

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

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

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

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

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

[A] [F#m] [E] [D] [A]

[A]After the glow, the scene, the stage, the set
[F#m]Talk becomes slow but there's one thing I'll never [E]forget,
Hey, you gotta pay your dues be[D]fore you pay the [A]rent

[A]Over the turnstiles and out in the traffic,

it's all that I can do, and I [D]wouldn't wanna let you [A]be.

[A]Run from the pigs, the fuzz, the cops, the heat,
[F#m]Pass me your gloves, there's crime and it's never [E]complete,
until you snort it up or shoot it down,
you're [D]never gonna feel [A]free

[A]Out on my skateboard, the night is just hummin',
the [F#m]gumsmacks are the pulse I'll follow, and if my walkman [E]
fades,
I got absolutely no one, [D]no one but my self to [A]blame.

[E]Don't worry, [D]we’re in no [A]hurry
[E7]School's out, [D]what did you ex[A]pect

[E]

[A] [F#m] [E] [D] [A]

[A]Out on tour with the Smashing Pumpkins,
[F#m]nature kids, I, they don't have no function,
[E]I don't understand what they mean,
and I [D]could really give a [A]fuck.

[A]Stone Temple Pilots, the elegant bachelors,
they're [F#m]foxy to me are they foxy to you,
I will [E]agree, it doesn't, absolutely nothin',
[D]nothin' more than [A]me.

[Here it kind of descends into madness having something to do with A]
