A Street Called Hope

Gene Pitney

 AmCEmG
 I took a room in a house of gloom
 FGAm
 Somewhere I could hide my soul
 CEmG
There I hoped to find a way to ease my mind
 FGAm
 Couldn't face the gloom tomorrow

 CGAmF
sat until the hours of three or four
 AmFAm
 Thinking doesn't help but seems
 CGAmF
crept to bed and cried myself to sleep once more
 AmE7
 Then I had the wildest dream

Chorus:
 AmDmAm
(Street called Hope) in a town named Freedom
 DmGCE7
Where each clock is pointed to the hour of love
 AmDmAm
Upon a street called Hope at the house of Welcome
 DmAmE7Am
 That's where she opened the door of love

When I awoke the following day
Every doubt had left my mind
My dream it taught me what the prophets say
Those who seek will always find

I ran down the stair and out in to the street
Looking for the nearest phone
We both said sorry and decided to meet
To find ourselves a happy home

Chorus (repeat and fade)
