Back Street Chords by Edwin Starr

[Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Cm] _
_ [Bb] _ I've been [Ab] living on the main street [Cm] _
[Bb] where the society is [Ab] the street.
[Cm] _
_ [Bb] _ People that live [Ab] on the main [Cm] street, [Bb] they don't know how [Ab] to swing.
[Cm] _
_ [Bb] _ But the people [Ab] on the back [Cm] street, [Bb] they swing _ [Ab] all night [Cm] long.
_ [Bb] _ Although I live [Ab] on the main [Eb] street, _ [Bb] the back street is where I belong.
[Eb] So show me the back street, [Db] _ _
show [Eb] me the back [Db] street, show [F] me the back street, _ _ _ [Db]
show [F] me the back [E] street. _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ People walk [Ab] by my [Cm] side [Bb] without knowing each [Fm] other's [Cm] name.
[Bb] And so, [Ab] that's the only [Cm] thing that [Bb] keeps me going right in [Ab] that swing.
[Cm] _
_ [Bb] _ Where people stick [Ab] together, [Eb] _
[Bb] one for all and [Ab] all for one.
[Eb] _
_ [Bb] _ Where they don't care [Ab] how much [Eb] money you've got, [Bb] as long as you're having [Ab] fun.
So show [Eb] me the back street, [Db] _ _

_ _ Being [Ab] a stranger in any [Cm] town, [Bb] it's a little bit lonesome [Ab] to [Cm] me. _
