This Street, That Man, This Life Cowboy Junkies
This is my first tab. Didn't see it on here so I figured it out. Listen to the song if
you want the picking pattern. This also sounds pretty good strumming on an acoustic.
[C]This street holds its [Am]secrets
[C]like a cobra holds its[Am] kill
[C]This street minds its [Am]business
[C]like a jailer minds hi[Am]s jail
[F]That house there is ha[G]unted
[C]That door's a portal t[Am]o hell
[F]This street holds its [G]secrets
[C]very well[Am]
second verse same pattern
That man wears his skin
like a dancer wears her veils
That man stalks his victims
like a cancer stalks a cell
That man's soul has left him his heart's as
deadly as a rusty nail
That man sheds his skin
like a veil
Bridge
[Dm]Lord, you play a hard [G]game, [C]you know we follow every [Am]rule
[C]Then you [C/B]take the one [F]thing we thought we'd never [G]lose
[Dm]All I ask is if she's [Am]with you please [C]keep her warm and [F]safe
[F]And if it's in your p[G]ower please purge the memory of this place
Third Verse same as others
This life holds its secrets
like a sea shell holds the sea,
Soft and distant calling like a
fading memory
This life has its victories but its
defeats tear so viciously
This life holds its secrets
like the sea
The album version just fades on the C Am so just end it where you feel like. I
usually end on a C.
