Chords

*I'm well aware that the G chord at the end of each chorus might not be correct (I couldn't find a better sounding chord there, but feel free to correct this part in the comments) but everything else should be close to, if not 100% correct. Intro (played on the high e-string): A:-7-8-10-8- x10 Verse:
F
In the night, in the beat city light,

   Dm              G                F
we steal ourselves away and hold on tight.
You were there, yeah we were all there,
    Dm                    G                 F
too young, too smart, too much for this one town.

     Dm          G                       F
When we'd get so high we got lost coming down.
Pre-chorus:
Dm                       Dm      F
When we were kids in the street, kids in the street.

Dm                       Dm      F
When we were kids in the street, just kids in the street.
Remember when we... Chorus:
Dm         F                 F
We used to laugh, we used to cry,
live and die by the forty-five.
Dm      F             F
Take me back, I'll go there.
Who could stop us, and who would...
   Dm           Dm          F
...care, always keep to the kids in the street.
Intro: A:-7-8-10-8- x4 Verse:
F
We were dreams, we were American graffiti scenes.

Dm                   G                 F
No war, no peace, no hopes, no me just us.
And the songs with the words we'd sing wrong,
     Dm               G                F
we'd drive until that jealous sun fell down.

        Dm                    G                F
Just to wash ourselves in the moonlight summer sounds.
Pre-chorus:
Dm                       Dm      F
When we were kids in the street, kids in the street.

Dm                       Dm      F
When we were kids in the street, just kids in the street.
Remember when we... Chorus:
Dm         F                 F
We used to laugh, we used to cry,
live and die by the forty-five.
Dm      F             F
Take me back, I'll go there.
Who could stop us, and who would...
   Dm           Dm          F
...care, always keep to the kids in the street.
Bridge:
Em                    F
And we never felt, so alive.

         Em                           F
And we'd dance, all night, under the sky.

     Dm                      F
We'd live, we'd breath, we'd die.

         Dm                               G
When the world, stood, still, for you and I.
Just... Verse:
F
Candles burn, 'cause the world will always turn

     Dm             G               F
I'll burn both ends until my fire's out

     Dm              G                  F
Lost in the darkness I can still scream out.
Chorus:
Dm         F                 F
We used to laugh, we used to cry,
say goodbye to I-35.
Dm      F                  F
Take me back, down a dirty road,
where it went we didn't care to know.
Dm      F                F
A glory night is a story saved.
Mark the chapter, but turn the...
   Dm           Dm       F
...page, always keep, to kids in the street.

Dm                       Dm      F
When we were kids in the street, just kids in the street.
