The Duke And The King - Union Street

Capo 3rd


C                                   F
I got the highest heels on the street
C                                     F 
but the don't get me high as I wanna be
C                      F
I was born in summer sound
Dm                     F      C
when all the new york city held it's breath
            G
scared to death

C                          F
a regular boy in a reagan time
C                         F
with my bb gun and satellite
C                      F
and boy did I want my mtv
Dm                          
and evreything was easy
F                  C              G
so easy  it was easy

G                    C        F           C
my oh my oh my     we had promises too keep
G                C                         
i say my oh my oh my
F                            C
many miles to get to union street
  G                                             F
if we could just get to union street everything would be allright

You were the prettiest girl in town
but your mum was a drug age kicked you around
and everyone new the word on the street
knew she was easy oh so easy
your ma' was easy

so meet me there in the parking lot
in that part of town that jesus forgot
and bring those pills you stole from your ma'
we'll be here, we'll be here and we'll be gone, we'll be long gone

my oh my oh my we had promises too keep
i say my oh my oh my
can you tell me the way to get tounion street
if we could just get to union street 

my oh my oh my we all have promises too keep
in the days of falling sky
with every house lit up on union street
if we can make it to union street

i say my oh my oh my
its such along long way to go
and nobody gets out alive
but just as long as we got rock and roll
then everything will be allright
it will be allright
