CHORDS: C F 2x

            C
Well the street lights shine,
    F      C  G
down on Blessing Avenue
         C
Lovers they walk by,
F          G
holding hands two by two

           C
A breeze crosses the porch,
F          C   G
bicycle spokes spin around
             C
Jacket’s on, I’m out the door;
F              G
tonight I’m gonna burn this town down

    F           C
And the girls in their summer clothes,
    F          C
in the cool of the evening light
  F           C
The girls in their summer clothes,
    G
pass me by

         C
Kid’s rubber ball smacks,
    F            C   G
off the gutter beneath the lamp light
        C
Big bank clock chimes,
      F         G
off go the sleepy front porch lights

           C
Downtown the store’s alive,
    F       C  G
as the evening’s underway
           C
Things been a little tight,
   F             G
but I know they’re gonna turn my way

    F           C
And the girls in their summer clothes,
    F          C
in the cool of the evening light
  F           C
The girls in their summer clothes,
    G
pass me by

     C
Frankie’s Diner’s,
F          C
over on the edge of town
F          Am
Neon sign spinning around,
    F            C   F
like a cross over the lost and found

      C
Fluorescent lights,
F          C
flicker above Bob’s Grill;
F                 C
Shaniqua brings a coffee and asks ¨fill?¨
     F              C F  G
And says ¨penny for your thoughts now, my poor Bill¨

     C
She went away,
  F       C  G
she cut me like a knife
        C
Had a beautiful thing,
   F         G
maybe you just saved my life

  F   Am
In just a glance,
F         C   G
down here on Magic Street
        Am
Love’s a fool’s dance,
    F              C  F G
I ain’t got much sense, but I still got my feet

    F           C
And the girls in their summer clothes,
    F          C
in the cool of the evening light
  F           C
The girls in their summer clothes,
    G
pass me by

    F           C
And the girls in their summer clothes,
    F          C
in the cool of the evening light
  F           C
The girls in their summer clothes,
    G
pass me by

     C   F       C  G
La la la li, la la la la la la li
     C   F       G
La la la li, la la la la la la li
     C   F       C  G
La la la li, la la la la la la li
     C   F       G
La la la li, la la la la la la li
