Start Jamming...
Oh, crown of life
Oh, darkened [Bm] one
[F#m] [G] I never [E] thought we'd [C#]
meet
You kiss my [F#m]
lips
Oh, then [Bm] you're gone
[C#] I'm back on Boogie Street
[F#m]
[F#]
[F#m] A sip of wine, a cigarette
[C#m] And then it's time to go
[D] I tied it up, the kitchenette
[Bm] I tuned the old [C#] banjo
[D] I'm wanted at the traffic jam
[F#m] They're saving me a seat
[E] I'm what I am, and what I am
[D] Is back on Boogie [C#] Street
And oh, my [F#m] love, I still recall
You kiss [A] my lips, [F#] and then [D] it's done
[Bm] Then it's done
[Bm] And I'm back, back [C#m] on Boogie [D] Street
A [G#m]
[F#m]
sip of wine, a cigarette
[C#m] And then it's [E] time to pay [D] a man
For Boogie [F#m] Street
Oh, crown of life
Oh, darkened [D]
[B] one
[D] [Bm]
I [C#m] never [C#] thought [C#]
we'd meet
You kiss my [F#m]
lips
You kiss [A] my lips, [F#m] and then it's [D]
[Bm] done
Then it's done
[D] And I'm back, [C#] back [C#m] on Boogie [D] Street
[A] [F#m]
So come my friend, be not afraid
[C#m]
We are so lightly hit
[D] It is in love that we are made
In love we [C#] disappear
[C#m] [Bm] Though all the [D] maps of blood and flesh
[F#m] Are posted on the door
[C#m]
There's no one who has told us yet
[D]
What Boogie Street is [F#m] for
Oh, crown of life
Oh, darkened [D]
one
[Bm]
[C#m] I never thought [C#] we'd meet
You kiss my [F#m]
lips, [A] [F#] and then it's [D]
[Bm] done
Then it's [B] done
[D] And I'm [C#] back, back [C#m] on Boogie [D] Street
A [A] [F#m]
sip of wine, a cigarette
And [C#m]
then it's time to go
[D] I tied up the kitchenette
[Bm] I tuned the old [C#] banjo
I'm [D]
wanted at the traffic jam
[F#m] They're saving me a seat
[E] I'm what I am, and what I am
[D] It's back on Boogie [C#] Street
On Boogie [D] Street
