Arrows of neon and flashing marquees out on Main Street.

Chicago, New York, Detroit and it's all on the same street.
E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
Your typical city involved in a typical daydream
E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
Hang it up and see what tomorrow brings.

[Chorus]
E baritone chordE A baritone chordA
Dallas, got a soft machine; Houston, too close to New Orleans;

New York's got the ways and means; but just won't let you be.

Most of the cats that you meet on the streets speak of true love,
E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
Most of the time they're sittin' and cryin' at home.
E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
One of these days they know they gotta get goin'
E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
Out of the door and down on the streets all alone.

[Chorus]

Sometimes your cards ain't worth a dime, if you don't lay'em down,

[Verse]

What in the world ever became of sweet Jane?
E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
She lost her sparkle, you know she isn't the same
E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
Livin' on reds, vitamin C baritone chordC, and cocaine,
E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
All a friend can say is "Ain't it a shame?"

[Chorus]
E baritone chordE A baritone chordA
Truckin', up to Buffalo. Been thinkin', you got to mellow slow
B baritone chordB A baritone chordA E baritone chordE
Takes time, to pick a place to go, and just keep truckin' on.

Sittin' and starin' out of the hotel window.

Got a tip they're gonna kick the door in again

I'd like to get some sleep before I travel,
E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
But if you got a warrant, I guess you're gonna come in.

[Chorus]
E baritone chordE A baritone chordA
Busted, down on Bourbon Street, Set up, like a bowlin' pin.

Knocked down, it get's to wearin' thin. They just won't let you be.

E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
I guess they can't revoke your soul for tryin',
E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7 E baritone chordE E7 baritone chordE7
Get out of the door and light out and look all around.
