Street serenade Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Em][Bm]
[B][Bm][G]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Shots rang
out from [D]the joint next door
[Em]A woman screams on the u[D]pper floor
[Em]The footsteps thunder down
[D]the fire escape
[Em]Sirens coming closer
[D]Might be too lat[C]e
Opera spills [D]out a neighbors [C]window
Just across the [Em]avenue[C]
Mmhm
Hear the heartbeat
[D]Of the urban jungle
[C]It seems to play a rha[D]psody in blue

[Verse 2]
[C]The thought of sinking,
[G]don't be afr[D]aid
That's the sound of the street serenade
[C]It's one big circus
[G]Here on par[D]ade
It keeps on jammin'
A street [Em]serenade

[Verse 3]
A chorus of [D]horns
In a traffic jam
[Em]Jack hammers roar
Like [D]they don't give [Em]a damn
Someone wailing on a bottleneck[D]guitar
[Em]Comes blasting out of a ga[D]y ba[Em]r[D]
[C]A lonely trumpet
[D]Down the bou[C]levard
Plays an homage to restless [Em]souls
[C]The rhythm of tires
[D]Over pot holes
[C]And in the distance
A [D]church bell [C]tolls
[G]Thousand [C]whistles

[Verse 4]
[G]
And not on [D]our neighbors
Plays it's part in the
Street serenade
[Gsus4]The echoes of prayer[C]s
[G]From a holy cru[D]sade
Heading up town for the

[Interlude 1]
Street serenade, yea
[Em]
[G]
If you're [Gsus4]new in to[G]wn[C]

[Verse 5]
[G]
Don't be [D]afraid
That's the sound of the
street serenade
[Gsus4]It's one big circus[G]
In a long parade
[D]That keeps on jammin'

[Interlude 2]
A street serenade
[Em]

[Verse 6]
[Bm]Some people sayin'
It's a sea of noise
[F#m]But they don't hear[Bm]
[F#m]The unheard music
[E]Hidden in the sky
(Hidden in the sky)
It's a [Em]symphony[Bm]
Come on

[Verse 7]
[Bm]A symphony (huh?)

[Outro 1]
It's a symphony
[Bm]
