D Gbm G A Cross the border, into the big bad world D Gbm Where it takes you about an hour just to cross the road, G A Just to stumble across another poor old sole, D Gbm From the dreary old lanes to the High St madness, G A I fight with my brain to believe my eyes D Gbm And it's harder than you think to believe this sadness, G A It creeps up my spine and haunts me through the night Bm7 Life is good, and the girls are gorgeous, G Suddenly the air smells much greener now Bm7 And I'm walking around with a half pack of cigarettes A Searching for the change I've lost somehow D Gbm These Streets, have too many names for me G A I'm used to Glenfield Road and spending my time down in Orchy D Gbm G A I'll get used to this eventually I know, I know D Gbm G A Where'd the days go when all we did was lay D Gbm And the stress that we were under wasn't stress at all, G A Just a run and a jump into a harmless fall D Gbm From walking by a high-rise to a landmark square, G A You see millions of people with millions of cares D Gbm And I stuggle to the train to make my way home G A I look at the people as they sit there alone Bm7 Life is good and the sun is shining, G Everybody floats to their ideal place Bm7 And the children all smile as the boats shuffle by them, A Trying to pretend that they've got some space. [repeat] D Gbm These Streets, have too many names for me G A I'm used to Glenfield Road and spending my time down in Orchy D Gbm G A I'll get used to this eventually I know, I know Bm7 Life is good, and the girls are gorgeous, G Suddenly the air smells much greener now Bm7 And I'm walking around with a half pack of cigarettes A Searching for the change I've lost somehow [repeat] D Gbm These Streets, have too many names for me G A I'm used to Glenfield Road and spending my time down in Orchy D Gbm G A I'll get used to this eventually I know, I know Outro (x3): D Gbm G A I know, I know This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

How to play These Streets on ukulele
These Streets runs on one pattern: d – d u – u d u. It rolls along at a medium pace of around 100 bpm. On this page the song is in D major. I rate the chords skilled, a fair middle ground. A relaxed island strum sits nicely under the soulful vocal.
