Larimer Street chords by Utah Phillips

Chords with lyrics

Verse:
Chord diagramA augmentedA                               Chord diagramD MajorD
Your bulldozers rolling through my part of town
Chord diagramA augmentedA                               Chord diagramE MajorE
 The iron ball swings and knocks it all down,
Chord diagramA augmentedA                               Chord diagramD MajorD
 You knocked down my flophouse and you knocked down my bars
Chord diagramA augmentedA                                Chord diagramE MajorE  Chord diagramA augmentedA
 And black-topped it over to park all your cars.

Chorus:
Chord diagramA augmentedA                             Chord diagramD MajorD
 And where will I go, and where can I stay?
Chord diagramA augmentedA                               Chord diagramE MajorE
 You knocked down the skid row and hauled it away,
Chord diagramA augmentedA                              Chord diagramD MajorD
 I'll flag a fast rattler and ride it on down, boys,
Chord diagramA augmentedA                           Chord diagramE MajorE Chord diagramA augmentedA
 They're running the bums out of town.

Old Maxie the tailor is closing his doors,
 There ain't nothing left in the secondhand stores,
 You knocked down my hock shop and the big Harbor Lights
 And the old Chinese cafe that was open all night.

Chorus

You ran out the hookers who worked on the street
 And built a big club where the playboys can meet.
 My bookie joint closed when your cops made a raid,
 But you built a new hall for the stock market trade.

Chorus

These little storekeepers they don't have a chance
 With the big uptown bankers a-calling the dance,
 With their suit-and-tie restaurants that's all owned by Greeks
 And the counterfeit hippies and their plastic boutiques.

Chorus

Now I'm finding out there's just one kind of war,
 It's the one going on 'tween the rich and the poor.
 Don't know a lot about what you'd call class
 But the upper and middle can all kiss my ass.

Chorus
