Intro: F C Fmaj7
Bb Am
The neighborhood that I live in,
Bb Am Dm
I've always seen as home.
Bb Am
At certain times at the evening,
Bb Am Dm
It's like a no-go zone.
Bb Am Gm C
Got cash in my pocket to last the weekend.
Bb Am Gm C
And I've got features I quite like And don't mind keeping.
Gm C Dm
But I still walk the side streets home,
Gm C Dm
Even when I'm on my own.
Bb Am Gm C
If I let myself believe all the bad press and horror stories,
F
I wouldn't set a foot outside.
Bb Am
You say I live in a bubble,
Bb Am Dm
I find the bubble's best.
Bb Am
At a faint whiff of trouble,
Bb Am Dm
Just turn and head due west.
Bb Am Gm C
Quite light on my feet if I ever need be,
Bb Am Gm C
As I zip down the street, No one ever sees me.
Gm C Dm
That's why I walk the side streets home,
Gm C Dm
Even when I'm on my own.
Bb Am Gm C
If I let myself believe all the bad press and all the stories,
F
I wouldn't set a foot outside.
Bb Am
I'm tempting fate,
(I know - tell me about it)
Bb Am
So nonchalant,
(I know and I don't doubt it)
Dm Am Gm C
I'll probably get it tomorrow.
Gm C Dm
Till then I walk the side streets home,
Gm C Dm
Even when I'm on my own.
Bb Am Gm C
If I let myself believe...
Gm C Dm
(Side streets home)
(On my own)
Believe...
