C Sparks fly on E Street when the boy prophets walk it handsome and hot All the little girls' souls grow weak when the man-child gives them a double shot F7 Them schoolboy pops pull out all the stops on a Friday night C The teenage tramps in skintight pants do the E Street dance and everything's all right G Well the kids down there are either dancing or hooked up in a scuffle Am Dressed in snakeskin suits packed with F7 Detroit muscle G# G C They're doing the E Street Shuffle Now those E Street brats in twilight dual flashlight phantoms in full star stream Down fire trails on silver nights with blonde girls pledged sweet 16 The newsboys say the heat's been bad since Power 13 gave a trooper all he had in a summer scuffle And Power's girl, Little Angel, has been on the corner keepin' those crazy boys out of trouble Little Angel steps the shuffle like she ain't got no brains She's deaf in combat down on Lover's Lane She drives all them local boys insane Am G Am G Am Little Angel says, "Oh oh oh (oh oh oh), Dm Em Am everybody form a line Am G Am G Am Dm Em Am Oh oh oh (oh oh oh), everybody form a line" Sparks fly on E Street when the boy- prophets walk it, handsome and hot All the little girls' souls grow weak when the man-child gives them a double shot Little Angel hangs out at Easy Joe's, it's a club where all the riot squad goes when they're cashin' in for a cheap hustle But them boys are still on the corner, loose and doin' that lazy E Street Shuffle As them sweet summer nights turn into summer dreams Little Angel picks up Power and he slips on his jeans as they move on out down to the scene All the kids are dancing You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  C  Dm  E  Em  F7  G  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
