Guitar chords with lyrics

D o w n  C i t y  S t r e e t s


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.
A             D
Crawled out of the bushes early morn.
G    D     A                   D
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.

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

A             D   G  D        A
Now I'm a wo/man, I'm not alone. I am married, I have children of my own.
                D  G      D       A
Now I have something I call my own, these are my children, this is my home.
            D   G        D     A
I look around and understand, how street kids feel when they're put down.


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


I believe Ruby Hunter wrote this song. RIP, Beautiful Lady.
