Alright we got a lot of songs about [G] being on the road and everything.
I guess this is just another one of them.
This is a song about where we come [A] from on our side of town.
This is called [E] the Old West Side
[A]
of Cincinnati.
Mid West Side.
[F#] [A]
[E] [D]
[A]
It's a long ways up, [E] still it's a long way [A] coming down.
It's a long way to Chicago [E] on the south side of the [D] town.
But to Johnny [A] and to Sally who I met out in the alley.
[D] Don't know if we'll [A] meet again, but [E] thanks for showing me [A] around.
I found joy and I found sorrow and it all could change tomorrow.
And it's something from within that keeps [E] me facing toward the wind.
[D] But sometimes [A] I can't believe [E] what this old [A] guitar and me [D] have gotten [A] ourselves into [E] and
the places [B] that we've been.
So [D] let it [A] reel, let it rock, [E] let it [A] rectify your soul.
[D] Let our bones [A] keep dancing around till our bodies [C#m] all turn cold.
And when [A] I run this through [E] I know where [A] I'll reside.
[D] With the [A] ladies and gents on the old west side.
[E] On the [D] old west side.
[A]
[E] [D]
[A] Now I'm way out on the highway [E] like a mongrel [A] off the road.
[D] Got some pennies [A] in my pocket [E] as I play my way back home.
[D] And I never [A] think to trade it, [E] I'll always [A] tell you [D] true.
We'll say [A] keep on turning till [E] I'm thinking [A] about you.
Now the factory said he's spewing [E] by the dirty [A]
riverside.
[D] Where the train belt [A] out a midnight [E] song and coyotes they cry.
For [D] their own to be [A] returning [B] and it ain't [A] much to you.
[D] We'll say keep [A] on turning till [E] I'm thinking [A] about you.
So let it reel, let it rock, [E] let it rectify [A] your soul.
Let [D] our [A] bones keep dancing around till [E] our bodies all [F#m] turn cold.
And [E] when I run this through I know where [A] I'll reside.
[D] With the [A] ladies and [E] gents on the old [A] west side.
[E] On the old [D] west [E] side.
[A] Old west side.
[E] [D]
[A] I found
[D]
joy and I found [C#] sorrow and [A] it all could change tomorrow.
[D] And it's something [C#m] from within that [B] keeps me facing toward the wind.
[C#] But sometimes at night I'll dream of you [G] beneath the open sky.
[D] And I'll miss your [A] close beside me and [B] the hazel in your eyes.
So let [C#] it reel, let it rock, let it rectify your [Em] soul.
Let our bones [C#] keep dancing around till [C#m] our bodies all turn cold.
And when I run this through I know where I'll reside.
With the [A] ladies and gents [E] on the old [A] west side.
Let it reel, let it rock, [E] let it [A] rectify your soul.
[D] Let our bones keep [A] dancing around [E] till our bodies [C#m] all turn cold.
