#1.
Am7 D7 G Em Am7 D Am7 G Am7
I have often walked down this street before.
Am7 D7 G B7 Em Am Am7 D7
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before.
Am7 Em7 CM7 Em7 A7 G Em
All at once am I several stories high,
Em7 C Am Am7 D7 Am7 D7 G
Knowing I'm on the street where you live.
#2.
G D7 G Em Am7 D Am7 G Am7 G
Are there lilac tre..es in the heart of town?
Am7 D7 G B7 Em7 Am Am7 D7
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Am7 Em7 CM7 Em7 A7 G Em
Does en...chantment pour out of every door?
Em7 C Am Am7 D7 Am7 D7 G
No, it's just on the street where you live.
CHORUS:
B7 CM7 CM7 D7 G
And oh, the towering feeling, just to know somehow you are near.
D# C#m7 F#7 Bm7 E7 A7 D7
The over..powering feeling, that any second you may suddenly appear.
#3.
Am7 D7 G Em Am7 D G Em
Peo..ple stop and stare, they don't bother me.
Am7 D7 G B7 Em7 Am Am7 D7
For there's nowhere else on earth that I would rather be.
Am7 Em7 CM7 Em7 A7 G Em
Let the time go by, I won't care if I,
Em7 C Am Am7 D7 Am7 D7 G
Can be here on the street where you live.
CHORUS:
REPEAT#3.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
