Streets of Baltimore Gram Parsons
Intro F
[F]Well I sold the farm to [Bb]take my woman [F]where she longed to [Bb]be
[C]We left our kin and all our friends back t[Bb]here in Tenness[F]ee
[F]And I bought those one way [Bb]tickets she had [F]often begged me [Bb]for
[C]And they took us to the streets of Baltim[F]ore
[C]Well her heart was filled with gladness when she [F]saw those city lights
[F]She said the prettiest place on earth was Baltimore at [C]night
Well a [F]man feels proud to [Bb]give his woman [F]what she's longing [Bb]for
[C]And I kind of like the Streets of Baltim[F]ore

[F]Then I got myself a fact[Bb]ory job, I ran[F] an old machine[Bb]
[C]And I bought a little cottage in a neighbo[Bb]rhood serene[F]
[F]And every night when I'd co[Bb]me home with eve[F]ry muscle sore[Bb]
[C]She'd drag me through the Streets of Balt[F]imore
[C]Well I did my best to bring her back to what she [F]used to be
[F]Then I soon learned she loved those bright lights more [C]than she loved me
Now I'm[F] a-going back on th[Bb]at same train t[F]hat brought me here[Bb] before
[C]While my baby walks the streets of Balti[F]more
[C]While my baby walks the streets of [F]Baltimore
