Down City Streets Chords & Tabs

A G D A
Down city streets I would roam, I had no bed I had no home.
D G D A
There was nothing that I owned, used my fingers as a comb.

Crawled out of the bushes early morn.

Used newspapers to keep me warm, then I'd have to score a drink.
G D A
Calm my nerves, help me to think.
A G D A
Down city streets I would roam, I had no bed I had no home.
D G D A
There was nothing that I owned, used my fingers as a comb.
D G D A
In those days when I was young, drinking and fighting was no fun.
D G D A
It was daily living for me, I had no choice. It was meant to be.
