 DCGEm
 I remember standing on the corner at midnight,       
 DCGEm
Tryin' to get my courage up                
 DCGEm
There was this long, lovely dancer in a little club downtown      
 DCGEm
I loved to watch her do her stuf   
 BmBsus2BmBsus2F#m
Through the long, lonely nights, she filled my sleep,    
 GEmG/A
Her body softly swayin' to that smoky beat 

Chorus (w/riff):
 DCGEm
Down on Mainstreet           
Down on Mainstreet

In the pool halls, the hustlers and the losers,
I used to watch 'em through the glass
Well I'd stand outside at closing time
Just to watch her walk on past
Unlike all the other ladies, she looked so young and sweet
As she made her way alone down that empty street

Down on Mainstreet
Down on Mainstreet

Solo (over chords)

And sometimes even now, when I'm feelin' lonely and beat,
I drift back in time, and I find my feet

Down on Mainstreet, down on Mainstreet
Down on Mainstreet, down on Mainstreet
Down on Mainstreet, down on Mainstreet

The main riff is changed slightly during each chorus (it gets
simpler each time) and there is a piano accompaniment throughout.
Sorry I don?t have the solo yet; this is my first tab.
