Lonely Town Lonely Street
Intro:
Bm7Bm7
Verse:
Bm7Bm7
You can live your life in a crowded city,
Bm7Bm7
You can walk along a crowded street.
F#7F#7
But the city really ain't no bigger than the friendly
F#7F#7 Bm7Bm7
People, friendly people that you meet.
Verse 2:
Bm7Bm7
You might be a sweet young, sweet young pretty, pretty,
Bm7Bm7
And at the dances you can't keep your seat.
F#7F#7
But, if dances don't lead to romances,
F#7F#7 Bm7Bm7
You might as well be born, be born with two left feet.
Verse 3:
Bm7Bm7
You might be a sweet-toned sure ‘nuff high-class talker,
Bm7Bm7
You might be a stone, stone expert at kissing.
F#7F#7
But it don't do too much good to be talkin',
F#7F#7 Bm7Bm7
Brother, when there ain't no, ain't nobody lis'nin'.
Verse 4:
Bm7Bm7
And if you are shy, just not much of a talker,
Bm7Bm7
Don't impress the people that you meet.
F#7F#7
You might as well be a lonely walker in a lonely town,
Bm7Bm7
on a lonely street.
