Start Jamming...
[Em] [D] [G]
From the corners of the country, from [D] the cities and the farms,
[Bm] for years and years of [C] living [G] tucked up underneath their arms.
[Bm] Walk away [C] from everything [G] just to see a dream [C] come true.
[G] So God bless the boys [Em] who make the noise [C] on 16th [G] Avenue.
With the million dollar spirit [D] and an old flat [G] top guitar,
[Em] they track from [C] town with all they [G] own in a hundred [D] dollar car.
[Bm] Cause one time [C] someone told [G] them about a friend or the friend they [C] knew
[G]
who owned, you know, [Em] a studio on 16th [G] Avenue.
[Em] [D] [G]
Now some were mourned for money, they [D] never had to say [G] survive.
[Em] Another swings a [C] nine pound [G] hammer just to stay [D] alive.
[Em] There's cowboys, [C] drunks and Christians, [G] mostly white and black [C] and blue.
They [G] all dial the phone, [Em] collect a home [C] from 16th [G] Avenue.
[Em] [D]
[G] Oh, but then one night some empty room where [D] no curtains [G] ever popped.
Like a miracle [C] some golden [G] words broke off of [D] someone's tongue.
[Em] After years of [C] being nothing, [G] they're all looking right at [C] you.
Then for a while [Bm] they'll go in [C] style on [D] 16th [G] Avenue.
He looked so wonderful, [D] so quiet [G] and discreet.
[B] But a lot of [C] lives were changed down on [G] that little one-way [D] street.
[Em] Cause they walked away [C] from everything [G] just to see a dream [Em] come true.
[G] So God bless the boys who [Em] make the noise [C] on 16th [G] Avenue.
[Em]
[D] [G]
From the corners of the country, [D] from the cities and [G] farms,
[Bm] with years and [C] years of living [G] tucked up underneath [D] their arms.
[Em] Walked away [Bm] from [C]
everything [G] just to see a dream come [C] true.
[G] So God bless the [Em] boys who make the [C] noise on 16th [G] Avenue.
So God bless the [Em] boys who make the [C] noise on [A] 16th [G] Avenue.
[Em] [D] [G]
