SHANTYTOWN

G                   D
I live down in Shantytown
                         G
Where chicken's twenty cents a pound
                          D
And if you live on such solid ground
 D                         G
Whatcha doin' down in Shantytown?
G                   D                 G
Well, I'm back on your side of the tracks
       D                           G7
Have come back for me to take you back?
          C                           G
Back to your high society to your cocktails and your teas
 D                                                           G
I'll look up but don't look down 'cause we got pride in Shantytown
    G              D
I live down in Shantytown
                         G
Where chicken's twenty cents a pound
                          D
And if you live on such solid ground
 D                         G
Whatcha doin' down in Shantytown?
G                            D                 G
Behind the walls of your shackled heart beats pure
           D                    G7
While the rich have a love to endure
               C                          G
Well, is the gold in your crown turning black?
             D                                                G
Is there something here in Shantytown that keeps you coming back?
    G                D
I live down in Shantytown
                         G
Where chicken's twenty cents a pound
                          D
And if you live on such solid ground
                         G
Whatcha doin' down in Shantytown?
 D                        G
Whatcha doin' down in Shantytow
