Streets of Baltimore

C F C F I sold the farm to take my woman where she longed to be G F C We left our kin and all our friends back there in Tennessee C F C F I bought those one-way tickets she had often begged me for G C And they took us to the streets of Baltimore G F C Her heart was filled with laughter when she saw those city lights C G She said the prettiest place on earth is Baltimore at night C F C F Oh well a man feels proud to give his woman what she's longing for G C And I kind of liked the streets of Baltimore C F C F Well I got myself a factory job I ran an old machine G F C I bought a little cottage in a neighborhood serene C F C F Yet every night when I came home with every muscle sore G C She would drag me through the streets of Baltimore G F C Well I did my best to bring her back to what she used to be C G But I soon learned she loved those bright lights more than she loved me C F C F Now I'm a going back on that same train that brought me here before G C While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore G C Yes my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
