Mainstreet chords
Bob Seger *
D C G Em 2x
D C G Em
I remember standing on the corner at midnight,
D C G Em
Tryin' to get my courage up
D C G Em
There was this long, lovely dancer in a little club downtown
D C G Em
I loved to watch her do her stuff
Bm Bsus2 Bm Bsus2
Through the long, lonely nights, she filled my sleep,
F#m G Em G
Her body softly swayin' to that smoky beat
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet

D C G Em
In the pool halls, the hustlers and the losers,
D C G Em
I used to watch 'em through the glass
D C G Em
Well I'd stand outside at closing time
D C G Em
Just to watch her walk on past
Bm Bsus2 Bm Bsus2
Unlike all the other ladies, she looked so young and sweet
F#m G Em G
As she made her way alone down that empty street
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet
Bm Bsus2 Bm Bsus2
And sometimes even now, when I'm feelin' lonely and beat,
F#m G Em G
I drift back in time, and I find my feet
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet
