Devil's Sidewalk - Graham Parker

pre>

Like no holding back you can get the main melody (riff) in your head

To play over over the intro chords, you’re set.

Capo at 2 makes the transitions more manageable for

Solo guitar.

chords mapped out as if they were open.

Em c em / / /

Em c em / / /

Em c em d

G c d c Took a walk down hell’s pavement

G c d c Took a walk down pulled by the tide

G c d c I had to make some new arrangement

Em c g Oh i thought i’d reach the other side

D em c g Then someone opened up their mouth to talk

D em c g d They said (hey!) you ain’t where you think you are

Em c em d You just landed on the devil’s sidewalk

G c d c Had a minor misunderstanding

G c d c With a street lamp one night

G c d c The smell of burning … rubber hit my senses

Em c g I thought i’d reach the other side

D em c g When someone opened up their mouth to talk

D em c g d They said (hey!) you ain’t where you think you are

Em c em d You’re just stranded on the devil’s sidewalk

Em c em d You’re just stranded on the devil’s sidewalk

F#m am7

And it’s cold, so cold

F#m am7

And it’s cold, so cold

F#m am7 d And it’s cold, so cold

G d g c No-one's got names, under the flames

G d g c Everyone screams, hope its a dream

G d g c f#m

Nothing makes sense, everything’s tense

Bm d Wish i could say what it meant

G c d c Took a long look down at the mirror

G c d c Couldn’t see my face at all

G c d c Just those strait lines, leading to nowhere

Em c g Oh i thought i’d reach the other side

D em c g When someone opened up their mouth as if to talk

D em c g d They said (hey!) you ain’t where you think you are

Em c em d You just landed on the devil’s sidewalk

Em c em d You just landed on the devil’s sidewalk
