"Straight Street" by Ry Cooder
[Intro]
Gmaj7 Gmaj7 D D x4
[Verse 1]
Gmaj7 D
Well I used to live on Broadway, right next to the liar's house
Gmaj7 D
My number was self-righteousness and a very little guide of mouth
[Chorus]
D A7 Gmaj7
So I moved, I moved and I'm livin' on Straight Street now
D A7 Gmaj7
I moved, I had to move, I'm livin' on Straight Street now
[Interlude]
D D x2
[Verse 2]
Gmaj7 D
Before I moved over, let me tell you how it was with me
Gmaj7 D
Old Satan had me bound in chains and I had no liberty
Gmaj7 D
One day my heart got troubled all about my dwellin' place
Gmaj7 D
I heard the Lord when He spoke to me, and he told me to leave that place
[Chorus]
D A7 Gmaj7
So I moved, I moved and I'm livin' on Straight Street now
D A7 Gmaj7
Yes I moved, I move, I'm livin' on Straight Street now
[Bridge]
D A7 Gmaj7
Since I moved, I'm really livin', I've got peace within
D A7 Gmaj7
I thank the Lord for everything, so glad I found new friends
[Chorus]
D A7 Gmaj7
So I moved, I moved and I'm livin' on Straight Street now
D A7 Gmaj7
Yes I moved, I move, I'm livin' on Straight Street now
[Outro] same chords as chorus
I'm livin' on Straight Street now
I moved, I had to move, I'm livin' on Straight Street now
I moved, I had to move, (I'm livin' on Straight Street now)
Well I moved, I had to move, and I'm livin' on Straight Street now
(Livin' on Straight Street now)
(Livin' on Straight Street now)
(Livin' on Straight Street now)
