Verse 1:
C#C#
Savin Hill my starting
point Down the beach
F#F#
with a few beers
Didn't know what
C#C#
life had in for us
C#C#
Starting out at
St. Margarets
Up there on that
F#F#
lonely hill
I got my start
C#C# C#
in 1970 Moved on
down to Motley
school Down to St.
F#F#
Willies from there
The catholic golden
C#C#
rule got hooks in me
C#C#
Sister Robad Ms.
Coughlin the teachers
and their authority
F#F#
I put my fists up to
C#C#
them at every turn
Chorus 1:
F#F# G#G#
Savin Hill
F#F#
it was my start
G#G#
Beginning of
a lifetime
F#F# G#G#
I still remember
C#C#
those days clearly
F#F# G#G#
Cannot forget my
F#F#
roots Or when
G#G#
it really started
F#F# G#G#
Savin Hill down
C#C#
by the beach
Verse 2:
C#C#
Grades on to eight
were nuts Hi-jinx
stunts and pranks
F#F#
pulled out Me and
my cousin Bill
C#C#
the terrible two
C#C#
Danny Joey Robby
John Saxon and
F#F#
Victoria Many a
long neck bottle
C#C#
cracked down there
Chorus 2:
F#F# G#G#
Savin Hill it
F#F#
was my start
G#G#
From the courts
F#F#
back to the park
G#G#
The weekend time
C#C#
seemed so damn free
F#F# G#G#
If you had my back
F#F#
I took yours Our
G#G# F#F#
obligatory creed
G#G#
Savin Hill down
C#C# C#(hold)
by the beach
Interlude: C#-- x8
Bridge:
C#(all the way)
Do you remember
the tennis courts?
The bungalow or
Harpo's bench
Do you remember
jumping that bridge?
The risks we took
and our chances?
GO!

Outro:
C#C#
The later years
F#F#
brought on alcohol
BB
nights Coupled with
petty arguments
C#C#
and bar room fights
C#C#
We never broke apart
F#F#
and we stood our
BB
ground If a cohort
C#C#
was lost he was found
C#C#
If things got hot
F#F#
Dorchester stayed
BB
cool No other townies
C#C#
came toward us fools
C#C# F#F#
Savin Hill down by
BB
the beach It's these
C#C#
memories I'll go preach
C#C# F#F#
Savin Hill down by
BB
the beach It's these
C#C#
memories I'll go preach
C#C#
Savin Hill is
F#F# BB C#(hold)
where it all began
