       They're comin' down the street

They're comin' right down the middle

Listen to those engines roar
                  D7sus
Now they're doin' tricks for the children

   When I'm grown

G                       E7sus4          {Fill}    C
          Look how they keep the beat
                   D7sus
Coming through the heart of the city
Em                    Bm7
            Oh, it's all so nice
C                               G

There is an electric guitar in the end playing a simple G (xxx033).
Most of the chords during the main progression will sound better
if you stick to the middle four strings, or add a high or low G.

That's how I play my favourite Randy Newman song. Enjoy
