Kids In The Street

	  		


Verse:
 
G 
In the night, in the beat city light, 
   Em              D                G 
we steal ourselves away and hold on tight. 

You were there, yeah we were all there, 
    Em                    D                 G 
too young, too smart, too much for this one town. 
     Em          D                       C 
When we'd get so high we got lost coming down. 

Pre-chorus:
 
Am                       Em      G 
When we were kids in the street, kids in the street. 
Am                       Em      G 
When we were kids in the street, just kids in the street. 

Remember when we... 


Em         C                 G 
We used to laugh, we used to cry, 

live and die by the forty-five. 
Em      C             G 
Take me back, I'll go there. 

Who could stop us, and who would... 
   Am           Em          G 
...care, always keep to the kids in the street. 




Verse:
 
G 
We were dreams, we were American graffiti scenes. 
Em                   D                 G 
No war, no peace, no hopes, no me just us. 

And the songs with the words we'd sing wrong, 
     Em               D                G 
we'd drive until that jealous sun fell down. 
        Em                    D                C 
Just to wash ourselves in the moonlight summer sounds. 

Pre-chorus:
 
Am                       Em      G 
When we were kids in the street, kids in the street. 
Am                       Em      G 
When we were kids in the street, just kids in the street. 

Remember when we... 


Em         C                 G 
We used to laugh, we used to cry, 

live and die by the forty-five. 
Em      C             G 
Take me back, I'll go there. 

Who could stop us, and who would... 
   Am           Em          G 
...care, always keep to the kids in the street. 


Bridge:
 
Bm                    G 
And we never felt, so alive. 
         Bm                           G 
And we'd dance, all night, under the sky. 
     Em                      C 
We'd live, we'd breath, we'd die. 
         Em                               D 
When the world, stood, still, for you and I. 

Just... 

Verse:
 
G 
Candles burn, 'cause the world will always turn 
     Em             D               G 
I'll burn both ends until my fire's out 
     Em              D                  C 
Lost in the darkness I can still scream out. 


Em         C                 G 
We used to laugh, we used to cry, 

say goodbye to I-35. 
Em      C                  G 
Take me back, down a dirty road, 

where it went we didn't care to know. 
Em      C                G 
A glory night is a story saved. 

Mark the chapter, but turn the... 
   Am           Em       G 
...page, always keep, to kids in the street. 
Am                       Em      G 
When we were kids in the street, just kids in the street.
