This is the Moments' version from 1970. Someone else remade it later,
but as I recall the chord progression was somewhat different.
The chords given are a composite of all the instruments, backing vocals,
etc. - the actual guitar part is simpler.
"Love On A Two-Way Street"
(Sylvia Robinson)
Intro: (piano chords, eighth-notes):
F /E Bbmaj7 A7sus4 A7
/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /
Chorus:
Gmaj7 F#m7
I found love on a two-way street (I found love)
Gmaj7 A Dmaj7
And lost it on a lonely highway
Gmaj7 F#m7
Love on a two-way street (I found love)
Em7 A D Dmaj9
And lost it on a lonely highway
Verse 1:
Dmaj7 Am7/D
True love will never last
D9
So I've been told
Gmaj7
But now I must find
F#m7 Em7 /A Dmaj9
It is finally goodbye, I know, mmm
Refrain:
Gmaj7
With music softly playing
Em7 A7
Her lips were gently saying
Dmaj7
[2: Honey] I love you
Gmaj7
She held me in desperation
F#m7
I thought it was a revelation
E7sus4 E7 A7sus4 A7
And then she walked out
Bridge:
Am7/D Gmaj7
How could I be so blind
Am7/D Gmaj7
To give up love the very first time
Am7/D Gmaj7
To be fooled is a hurting thing
Am7/D F
To be loved and fooled is a crying shame
/E Bbmaj7
While I bear the blame
A7sus4 A7
And she laughs my name
[repeat refrain]
[repeat chorus; fade]
