The Hollies é uma banda britânica de rock and roll formada no princípio dos anos 1960. Eles foram contratados pela Parlophone em 1963 como colegas de selo dos Beatles, e lançaram seu primeiro álbum nos Estados Unidos em 1964 durante a primeira leva da Invasão Britânica. Eles são comumente associados a Manchester, pois vários de seus integrantes originais vinham da cidade e de comunidades vizinhas.
História O grupo foi criado pelos amigos de infância Allan Clarke, vocalista, e Graham Nash, em meados de 1962.

Chorus: BbD#BbD#Bb I know that we could have made it; we had ideas in our heads. D#BbD#Bb And I wish somehow we could have saved it but we're Gasoline Alley bred. D#BbD#Bb Yet the years haven't really been wasted and I know it in my head. D#BbD# We did good for the life that we've tasted cause we're Gasoline Alley D#mBb Gasoline Alley bred
Woman, you can really believe it, I did everything a man could do. Breaking my back just to make us a dime. That won't mean a damn when no one wants to know you.
Woman, I know how you're feeling. I've seen the hurt upon your face. How many time do you think that I've cried? Knowing every day that your heart was getting broken, Holdin' back your pride til you were nearly chokin' Oh, let's get away, baby.
Chorus
G#Bb Gasoline Alley, Gasoline Alley Bred (repeat to fade)
