like leather

D
A
and the diamond-hard look look of a cobra
F#m
I was born blue and weathered
D
E
F#m
but I burst just like a supernova
D
I could walk like Brando right into the sun,
F#m
D
then dance just like a Casanova
E
With my blackjack and jacket
F#m
and hair slicked sweet
D
E
Silver star studs on my duds,
F#m
just like a Harley in heat
E
When I strut down the street,
D
I could feel its heart beat

The sisters fell back and said,
F#m
"Don't that man look pretty"

The cripple on the corner cried out
, "Nickels for your pity"

Then gasoline boys downtown
F#m
sure talk gritty

I was the king of the alley, Mama,
D
E
A
I could talk some trash
F#m
I was the prince of the paupers,
D
E
F#m
crowned downtown at the beggar's bash
D
I was the pimp's main prophet,
I kept everything cool
F#m
Just a backstreet gambler
D
with the luck to lose
E
And when the heat came down
D
E
it was left on the ground
D
E
F#m
The devil appeared like Jesus through
the steam in the street
D
E
Showin' me a hand I knew even
F#m
the cops couldn't beat
D

I felt his hot breath on my neck
F#m
as I dove into the heat

Verse 3
A
Asus4
And the sages of the subway
A
sit just like the living dead
D
As the tracks clack out the rhythm,
their eyes fixed straight ahead
G
They ride the line of balance
and hold on by just a thread
Cm
But it's too hot in these tunnels,
C
you can get hit up by the heat
Dm
You get up to get out at your next stop,
C
but they push you back in your seat
Bb
Your heart starts beatin' faster as
you struggle to your feet
E
Then you're outa that hole
and back up on the street
Verse 4
D
E
And then South Side sisters
F#m
sure look pretty
D

The cripple on the corner cries out,

"Nick els for your pity"

And then downtown boys,
F#m
they sure talk gritty
