[D] On the streets [F] where time has [D] died, no retreat you never tried.
In times of old, in days gone by, if I could catch a dancing eye,
[G] it was on [F] the way,
[Eb] on the [D] road to dream, yeah.
[E] Now my [Eb] heart's drowned in those [D] dark streets, yeah.
The street is cold, its trees are gone, the star is cold and dark as barn.
Once you set sail, catch your star, you have to bail or work too far.
[G] It was on the [F] way,
[Eb] on the road [D] to dream, yeah.
[E] Now my [Eb] heart's drowned in those [D] dark streets.

I felt [Dm] the wind [D] shout like a drum, to set my friend miles in hand down.
It couldn't last, had to stop, straight ago to the last straw.
[G] It was on [F] the way,
[Eb] [Bb] on the road [D] to dream, yeah.
