Streets of Baltimore Gram Parsons
(Capo on 3)
I s[C]old the farm to take my [F]woman where she longed t[C]o be[F]
We left[G] our kin and all our friends back there in Tennessee[F] [C]
I b[C]ought those one-way tickets she h[F]ad often begged me for[C] [F]
And they took us[G] to the streets of Baltimore[C]
Her hea[G]rt was filled with laughter when she saw those city lights[F] [C]
She said[C] the prettiest place on earth is Baltimore at night[G]
Oh well a man fee[C]ls proud to give his woman wh[F]at she's longing for[C] [F]
And I kind [G]of liked the streets of Baltimore[C]
Wel[C]l I got myself a factory jo[F]b I ran an old mach[C]ine[F]
I [G]bought a little cottage in a neighborhood[F] serene[C]
Yet eve[C]ry night when I came home [F]with every muscle sore[C] [F]
She would drag me [G]through the streets of Baltimore[C]
Well I did [G]my best to bring her back to what she used to be[F] [C]
But I [C]soon learned she loved those bright lights more than she loved me[G]
Now I'm a going b[C]ack on that same train [F]that brought me here before[C] [F]
While my baby wal[G]ks the streets of Baltimore[C]
Yes my baby w[G]alks the streets of Baltimore[C]
