Nanci Griffith - Love At The Five And Dime chords with lyrics - Live 1988 Anderson Fair - Love At The Five And Dime

_ _ _ _ Bb _ _ _ .
As a young girl growing up in Austin, Texas, there was a very Eb special building down at.
6th and Bb Congress Avenue.
_ .
_ It was a place that you went to change buses _ when you were going Eb from north to south Austin.
_ _ Bb When you got off the bus, you had just enough time to run inside and get yourself a Coca-Cola.
and look through the record bin and wink at the boys and get back on the bus.
_ Eb _ _ Bb It was called the Woolworth's Store.
_ .
_ _ _ _ _ _ Come to find out, they have Woolworth's Stores Eb all over the world.
Bb The first time I went to London, we drove up in front of one and we'd just flown into.
town and I wanted to stop the car so I could get out and go fill up my suitcase with unnecessary plastic objects.
Eb _ _ _ Bb _ _ _ _ _ .
_ But all Woolworth's Stores are special.
They all smell the same.
Eb They smell a little bit like popcorn and chewing gum rubbed around Bb on the bottom of a leather sole shoe.
_ They all have the same sound.
Those that have an elevator in them have a little sound like this.
_ .
Eb And I've always been asked what that little sound Bb was in this song.
_ _ _ .
And that's what it is.
It's the elevator coming up and down in the old Woolworth's Store.
_ _ Eb _ .
_ _ Bb _ _ _ _ _ .
Rita was sixteen years, hazel eyes and chest Eb smothered.
She ate the Woolworth's Bb pound of chai.
_ _ _ And Eddie was a sweet romancer and a darn good Eb dancer.
And it was the Bb aisles of the five and nine.
_ And they'd sing, dance a little closer to Cm me.
Dance a little closer Bb now.
Dance a little closer to Cm me.
_ _ _ Bb Dance a little Cm closer to me.
Bb It's closing time F and love's on sale tonight at Bb this five and nine.
_ _ And Eddie played the steel guitar and his mama cried cause he played in the Eb bars.
And he kept young Rita howl Bb-cated night.
_ _ So they married up in Abilene.
Lost a child in Tennessee.
Eb _ _ _ .
_ Bb _ _ And they'd sing, dance a little closer Cm to me.
Dance F a little Eb closer Bb now.
Dance a little closer F to Cm me.
_ _ Bb Dance a little closer Cm to me.
_ Bb It's closing time cause love's on sale tonight at this five and nine.
_ _ One of the boys in Eddie's band took a shot and Rita's hand.
Eb So Eddie ran off with the bass Bb man's wife.
_ _ Oh but he was back by June singing a different tune.
Eb _ Sporting Miss Rita back by Bb his side.
_ _ And he'd sing, dance a little closer to me.
Dance Cm a little closer Dm now.
Dance a little closer Cm to me.
_ _ Bb _ Dance a little closer Cm to me.
It's closing Bb time and love's on sale tonight at this five and nine.
_ _ _ _ _ .
_ _ _ _ _ Eb _ _ _ .
_ Bb _ _ _ _ Eddie traveled with the barroom band till Lars White just took his Eb hands.
Now he sells insurance on Bb the side.
_ _ _ And Rita's got her house to keep.
She writes dime store novels of a love so Eb sweet.
They dance to the radio Bb late at night.
_ They still sing, dance a little closer Cm to me.
Dance a little closer Bb now.
Dance a little closer Cm to me.
_ _ Bb _ Dance a little closer to me.
Cm Hey it's F closing time and love's on sale tonight at this Bb five and nine.
_ _ _ Rita was sixteen years.
Hazel eyes are just not here.
Eb She really made the Bb Woolworth counter shine.
_ _ _ And Eddie was a sweet romancer.
They say he was a darn good Eb dancer.
And it was the Bb Isles of the Five and Nine.
And they lived a mighty simple life.
Eb Who was the Isles of the Five Bb and Nine.
We could all go tomorrow and take a date.
Eb Who was the Isles of Bb the Five and Nine.
Who _ _ _ .
Gm _ N asked to meet me.
Me, you.
_ _ _ .
