[Em7]  [Am7]  [Em7]  [Am7]
  
[Verse 1]
I play the [Em7] street life, because there's [Am7] no place I can go
[Bm7] Street life, Its the  [Em7] only life I know.
[Em7] Street Life, and there's a [Am7] thousand cards to play,
[Bm7] Steet Life, until you  [Em7] play your life away.
  
[Chorus-quick changes] 
You [Am7] let the people [C/D-x5555x] see, 
just who you [Bm7] wanna be,  [E7#9-020103]     
And  [Am7] every night you  [C/D-x5555x] shine, just      
[Gmaj7] like a superstar.
The  [Gm7] type of life that's [Bb/C-x3333x]  played, a   
[Fmaj7] temptin' mas[F#m7-5-232252] querade      
You [Am7] dress you walk you [C/D-x5555x]  talk, You're  
[Gmaj7] who you think you are  [B7#5#9-hendrix-x21233]
 
[Verse 2]
[Em7] Street life, You can  [Am7] run away from time,
[Bm7] Street life, For a [Em7] nickel, or a dime,
[Em7] Street life, But you  [Am7] better not get old,
[Bm7] Street life, Or you're [Em7] gonna feel the cold.
 
[Chorus] 
There's [Am7] always love for [C/D] sale a 
[Bm7] grown-up fairy [E7#9] tale 
Prince [Am7] Charming always [C/D] smiles 
behind [Gmaj7] a silver spoon
And [Gm7] if you keep it young [Bb/C]
your [Fmaj7] song is always [Gm7-5] sung  
Your  [Am7] love will pay your way [C/D]
beneath [Gmaj7]  the silver moon

[Chorus - To play the horn part at end of B7 play 10 and 12 on B string, then 6 and 8 on E string for F]
