Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Dm]Underneath the swirling light
of [G]jasmine tea and smoke
You [Dm]traced my face up on
the barroom [G]wall
And you [Dm]tried to intimidate me as
[G]you drank your drinks and joked
Say[Dm]ing it takes more than clean hands
to catch an[G]gels when they fall
Well I'll [Dm]keep [Am]that in [G]mind

[Verse 2]
[C]Come on darlin' [F]oh my my
Come and [G]hear [F]my 23rd Street lullaby
Got a [C]bottle of wine, a [F]bag of tricks
There's a [G]place for you
under my [F]fingertips
There's a [C]place for you, [F]oh my my
[G]Up on the [F]rooftops of [C]my[Dm]
[C]23rd Street [F]lul[G]laby

[Verse 3]
[Dm]Me and you on the avenue,
on [G]a summer night
[Dm]Bass and drums and the traffic
hums [G]and I feel all right
Well [Dm]come and walk beside me
darlin' an[G]d I'll take my place
I'm [Dm]a little low on courage,
but I'm [G]high on faith
And I [Dm]feel [Am]so fi[G]ne

[Verse 4]
[C]Come on darlin', [F]oh my my
Come [C]and [G]hear my [F]23rd Street lullaby
Got a [C]bottle of wine, a [F]bag of tricks
There's a [Gsus4]place for you
[F]under my fingertips
There's a [C]place for you, [F]oh my my
[G]Up on the [F]rooftops of [C]my [Dm]23rd Street
[C]lul[F]lab[G]y
[C][Dm][G]

Sha la la la la la la la

[Dm][Am][G]

[Verse 6]
Got a [Dm]downtown heart, got a [F]love so sweet
Got [G]a tone p[C]oem and a f[G]unky little b[C]eat
[Dm]Got a music box, i[F]t's soft inside
[G]And in your arms I come [Dm]alive
So don't you worry now, [F]say you will
[G]I'll be waiting [Am]here [G]until [Dm]you take a chance,
[F]take a risk
I'll [G]take what's broken and
I'll take what's [Dm]fixed

[Verse 7]
Me and you on the avenue,
[G]on a summer night
[Dm]Bass and drums and the traf[F]fic hum[G]s,

[Verse 8]
and I feel all right
[C]Come on darlin', oh my my
[F]Come [C]and [G]hear my [F]23rd Street lullaby
Got a [C]bottle of wine, a [F]bag of tricks
There's a [G]place for you under
my [F]fingertips
There's a [C]place for you, [F]oh my [C]my
[G]Up on the [F]rooftops of my eyes
[C]Want to take a [F]chance, take a risk
I'll [G]take what's broken and
I'll [C]take what's [G]fixed
[C]I can't hear y[F]ou[C][G][C][F]
[C][F][G][F][C][F][C][G]
[F]
[C]Let me hear [F]you[C][G]
[F]My [C]23r[Dm]d St[C]reet lullaby[F][G]
