        G               C
Well, I sold my farm to take my woman

G                   C
Where she longed to be

   D            
We left our kin and all our friends

     C              G
Back there in Tennessee

  G                    C
I bought those one-way tickets

           G               C
That she'd often begged me for

     D                              G
They took us to the streets of Baltimore

    D       
Her heart was filled with gladness

        C              G
Just to see those city lights

    G        
She swore the prettiest place on earth

                 D
Was Baltimore at night

  G                  C
A man feels proud to give his woman

G                  C
What she's longing for

      D                               G
And I kinda liked the streets of Baltimore

  G            C
I got myself a factory job

  G            C
I ran an old machine

  D     
I bought a little cottage

     C              G
In a neighborhood serene

    G                C
And every night when I'd come home

     G            C
With every muscle sore

      D                                   G
She'd drag me through the streets of Baltimore

  D 
I did my best to bring her back

   C                 G
To where she used to be

    G 
But I soon learned she loved those bright lights

                    D
More than she loved me

         G             C
So I'm a-going back on that same train

     G                 C
That brought me here before

         D                              G
While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore

         D              C               G
While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
