Start Jamming...
The one you don't sing out of.
That'll be the day.
I'm telling you, it's coming.
So keep your vaseline handy.
Keep cool, brothers.
We are the saviors of soul, remember?
Come on, let's go!
Thank you, thank you.
Thank you, thank you.
I'd like to do for my fans now is a nice slow song.
It goes a bit [Ab] like this.
At the dark [Gm] end [Fm] of the street
That [Ab] is [Gm] where we [Fm] always meet
Hiding [Ab] in shadows [Dbm] where we [Ab] don't belong
Living [Db] in darkness [Eb] to hide [Ab] along
[Db] You and [Ab] me
At [Db] the dark [Eb] end of [Ab] the street
[Db] You [Ab] and me
[Eb] I [Ab] know time is [Gm] gonna take [Fm] its toll
We [Ab] have to pay [Gm] for the love [Fm] we stole
[Ab] It's a sin [Db] and we know [Ab] it's wrong [Db] Oh!
[Eb] There's no [Ab] love strong [Db] Stealing [Ab] away
To [Db] the dark [Eb] end of [Ab] the street
[Db] You [Ab] and me
[Eb] They're [Ab] gonna find us
[Gm] They're gonna find us
[Fm] They're gonna [Db] find us lost [Ab]
someday
[Db] You [Ab] and me
[Db] At the dark [Eb] end [Ab] of the street
[Db] You [Ab] and [E] me
And [A] when the daylight [E] now [Gbm] goes round
[A] By ten [Abm] we'll both [Gbm] go down town
[A] If we should meet [D] just [Gb] one [A] will come [D] undone
[E] Babies [A] don't you cry
[D] [A] Tonight we'll meet Oh!
[D] At the dark [E] end [A] of the street
[D]
[G] [A] You [N] and me
