[G] [F#] [Em] [D]
[G]
From the corners of the country, [D] from the cities and [G] the farms
[Em] With years and [C] years of living tucked [G] up underneath their [D]
arms
[Em] They walk away [C] from everything [G] just to see a dream [C] come true
So [G] God bless the boys who make the noise [C] on [D] 16th [G] Avenue
With a million dollar spirit [D] and an old flat top [G] guitar
[Em] They drive the [C] [G]
hundred [D] dollar car
[Em] One time someone [C] told them [G] about a friend of a friend [C] they knew
[G] Who owns [D] you know [G] a studio [C] on
[D] 16th [G] Avenue
Now some are born to money, they [D] never had to say [G] survive
[Em] And others swing [C] a nine pound [G] hammer just to stay [D] alive
[Em] There's cowboys [C] and Christians mostly [G] white and black and [C] blue
They've [G] all dialed [D] a phone [Em] for leg to [G] home [C] from [D] 16th [G] Avenue
[Bm] [Em]
[D] [G]
But then one night in some empty room where [D] no curtains ever [G] hung
[D] [Em] Like a miracle some [C] golden words [G] rolled off of [D] someone's tongue
And [Em] after years of being [C] nothing they're [G] all looking right at [C] you
And then [G] for a [D] [Em] while they'll go in [G] style on [C]
[D] 16th [G] Avenue
It looks so uneventful, so [D] quiet and [G] discreet
[Bm] [Em] But a lot of lives were [C] changed down on [G] that little one way [D] street
Cause [Em] they walk away from [C]
everything just [G] to see a dream come [C] true
So [G] God bless the [D] boys [Em] who make the [G] noise [C] on [D] 16th [G] Avenue
