[Intro]

D Dsus4 D A
[Verse 1]
D Bm
My best friend lived in this house
Em A
And we played ball in the street after school
D Bm
God knows how he's living now
G A
I head his mom lost the house and had to move
D Bm
And sure, it's looking better these days
Em A
Well it's hard to believe
D Bm G A
And this ain't the way it was back in 1993
[Chorus]
G A
And those weren't better days
D Bm
But they still meant something mean
G A D
When we was kids out in the streets
[Interlude]
D A/C# Bm A G A
[Verse 2]
D A/C# Bm G A A6
Now there was a market on the corner, it was next to the car wash
D A/C# Bm G A A6
And lazy weeping willow across the street in the light
D A/C# Bm G A A6
Where the old men played dominoes on those hot summer days
D A/C# Bm G A A6
Sweatin' the Wild Irish Rose out in the shade
D A/C# Bm G A A6
And from Wedgewood to Granny White oh, and, Belmont to 8th
D A/C# Bm G A
All these songs was broke into a host of sights and shapes
[Chorus]
G A
And that was lower-end livin'
D A/C# Bm
Back when life was cheap
G A D
When we was kids out in the streets
[Instrumental]
D A/C# Bm G A
D A/C# Bm G A
[Verse 3]
Bm D G A D Bm A
Now it's gone, blown on a lonely wind of change
Bm D G
Now I feel like I miss it most
Em G A A/E A
Just 'cause I never thought that it could change
D Bm G A
So I hear things are moving west these days
D Bm G A
Same old cut and pasting, just filling the blanks
D A/C# Bm G A
Standing here right now, though it brings a lot of pain
G A D
I smile when I think, yesterday
[Outro]
G A
Back when life was something
D A/C# Bm
Like 1, 2, 3
G A D
When we was kids out in the streets
G A6/F# A/E A D
