  Streets of Baltimore

  I play this with an alternate bass strum.

  

  C                                               F        C

  Well I sold the farm to take my woman where she longed to be

  G                                         F           C

  We left our kin and all our friends back there in Tennessee

  C                                            F             C

  And I bought those one way tickets she had often begged me for

  G                                     C

  And they took us to the streets of Baltimore

  G                                                      F        C

  Well her heart was filled with gladness when she saw those city lights

  C                                                     G          

  She said the prettiest place on earth was Baltimore at night

  C                                         F               C

  Well a man feels proud to give his woman what she's longing for

  G                                   C

  And I kind of like the Streets of Baltimore

  

  (the second part follows the same chord pattern)

  

  Then I got myself a factory job, I ran an old machine

  And I bought a little cottage in a neighborhood serene

  And every night when I'd come home with every muscle sore

  She'd drag me through the Streets of Baltimore

  Well I did my best to bring her back to what she used to be

  Then I soon learned she loved those bright lights more than she loved me

  Now I'm-a-going back on that same train that brought me here before

  While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore

  While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
