E            G#7          A         E
Goin to the  Gate Of Horn in my memory
F#7                                   B7
Red light flickerin on the tablecloth big dark beer in front of me
E               G#7         A               E
How I wish that I was there standing at the bar
F#7                         B7
Listening to Mr Gibson play on his fine guitar
B7                                             E
It's a big old twelve string and it went like this

E     A    E

E            G#7          A          E
Gate Of Horn Gate Of Horn glad I was Chicago born
F#7                B7            E    B7
Gate Of Horn meant everything to me
E            G#7        A                  E
I was barely seventeen little salty and a little green
F#7                    B7        E       B7
Gate Of Horn meant everything to me
          E
There was Judy and Peter and Josh and Odetta
         A                B7
The Clancies and Mary and Paul made it better
E
Grossman and Tommy and Dickie and Lou
         A                  B7                 E
And when no one was looking McGuinn was there too

SOLO

E                  G#7
Then they came and tore it down
A                          E
Songbirds scattered and we all left town
F#7                B7            E
Gate Of Horn meant everything to me
E            G#7          A          E
Gate Of Horn Gate Of Horn glad I was Chicago born
F#7                B7            E    B7
Gate Of Horn meant everything to me
