[Fm7]  [Bbm7]  [Fm7]  [Bbm7]
  
[Verse 1]
I play the [Fm7] street life, because there's [Bbm7] no place I can go
[Cm7] Street life, Its the  [Fm7] only life I know.
[Fm7] Street Life, and there's a [Bbm7] thousand cards to play,
[Cm7] Steet Life, until you  [Fm7] play your life away.
  
[Chorus-quick changes] 
You [Bbm7] let the people [Db/Eb-x66666] see, 
just who you [Cm7] wanna be,  [F7#9-13x214]     
And  [Bbm7] every night you  [Db/Eb-x66666] shine, just      
[Abmaj7] like a superstar.
The  [Abm7] type of life that's [B/Db-x44444]  played, a   
[F#maj7] temptin' mas[Gm7-5-343363] querade      
You [Bbm7] dress you walk you [Db/Eb-x66666]  talk, You're  
[Abmaj7] who you think you are  [C7#5#9-hendrix-x32344]
 
[Verse 2]
[Fm7] Street life, You can  [Bbm7] run away from time,
[Cm7] Street life, For a [Fm7] nickel, or a dime,
[Fm7] Street life, But you  [Bbm7] better not get old,
[Cm7] Street life, Or you're [Fm7] gonna feel the cold.
 
[Chorus] 
There's [Bbm7] always love for [Db/Eb] sale a 
[Cm7] grown-up fairy [F7#9] tale 
Prince [Bbm7] Charming always [Db/Eb] smiles 
behind [Abmaj7] a silver spoon
And [Abm7] if you keep it young [B/Db]
your [F#maj7] song is always [Gm7-5] sung  
Your  [Bbm7] love will pay your way [Db/Eb]
beneath [Abmaj7]  the silver moon

Dm7 - G7 - C
Dm7 - G7 - C
 
[Verse 1 - Barre chords so tight and quieter]
Dm7        G7             C
   Sunday morning rain is falling
Dm7           G7            C
   Steal some covers share some skin
Dm7           G7               C
   Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable
    Dm7               G7             C
You twist to fit the mold that I am in
     Dm7               G7           C
But things just get so crazy living life gets hard to do
            Dm7            G7              C
And I would gladly hit the road get up and go if I knew
     Dm7               G7             C
That someday it would lead me back to you
     Dm7               G7             C
That someday it would lead me back to you
  
[Chorus - Open chords for big chorus] 
            Dm7 G7 C
That may be all I  need
                   Dm7 G7 C
In darkness she is all I  see
                   Dm7    G7  C
Come and rest your bones with me
                       Dm7
Driving slow on Sunday morning
       G7            C
And I never want to leave
  
[Verse 2] 
Dm7         G7               C
   Fingers trace your every outline, oh yay yay
Dm7         G7             C
   Paint a picture with my hands, oh oh
Dm7             G7                 C
   And back and forth we sway like branches in a storm
           Dm7               G7             C
Change the weather still together when it ends
  
[Chorus] 
            Dm7 G7 C
That may be all I  need
                   Dm7 G7 C
In darkness she is all I  see
                   Dm7    G7  C
Come and rest your bones with me
                       Dm7
Driving slow on Sunday morning
      G7            C
And I never want to leave
