G5 Em G5 Em
Everything is golden down golden street
G5 Em G5 Em
Shuffling in your shabby shoes you couldn't feel more complete
C G
And every time you're here
C G
Listening to the wind
Em A
Of prosperity's whispers to your own prejudice
G5 Em G5
Sparky is spying in your mind, it's good and deep
Em G Em G
Pass A lot of rusted cars down golden street
C G
And every time you're here
C G
You can here the din
Em A
Of prosperity's whispers of your own prejudice
Musical Interlude

And i i want to live down your street
G Em
And i want the keys that make life so easy
A C G
And the wall of the kingdom is always to high to climb
A C G
Each time i walk past your window there's something that catches my eye
A C G
And the wall of the kingdom is always to high to climb
A C G
Oh la la la la la, la la la la la la la
end
G Em C A
