On Dark Street
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the album The One
Bb Gm Bb/F Eb Bb Eb Bb Eb Bb Cm F Ab A Bb
Gm7 Dm7
I'm staring down a mile of disappearing track
Ebmaj7 Bb F
Is this the best that we could do
Bb Gm7 Dm7
I'm leaning through the rain but you ain't looking back
Eb Bb F
What did I ever have to prove
Gm7 Eb F
`Cause it feels like electricity hitting an open field
Gm7
When am I ever gonna to learn
Eb Cm7 Dsus4
Married life's two people trying to grab the wheel
D7 Bb
Oh and we must have got lost
Dm7 Eb
Living on Dark Street
Cm7
Looking for an exit
F
Sleeping on the concrete
Bb
You can't see it with your eyes
Dm7 Eb
You can't find it with your feet
Cm7
All I know is that we're lost baby
F Ab Bb
And we're living on Dark Street
All the layoffs and the pay cuts cripple me inside
I pay the price for living everyday
Trying to keep us all together along with a little pride
What'll it take to make you stay
But I've dreamed about an island
And all I got's a bucket of sand
I'd give my eyes to give you all your dreams
Now I get to see my family slipping through my hands
