Song information
Artist: Graham Parker Album: The Up Escalator
Lyrics
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
Repeat and fade
