C                         G
There's a crazy sense of duty
       D
As he licks between his fingers
           A                         E
Wipes the ketchup from his face and hands
             C
There's a strong determination
G
That his teachers never witnessed
D              A             Em
Never close enough to understand
C                       G
Through the avenues of fashion
Am             Em
To the palaces of dreams
D
All the way, all the way

Chorus:
      C            G    D
Down Guitar Street, yeah
A     E
Down Guitar Street

Down Guitar Street, there he goes
A             E
Oh, oh, down Guitar Street

He's like a bull just bred for fighting
And he don't deliver nothing
Outside the only thing that he knows
Mama, papa don't know what to say
They know he's gonna leave them anyway
Take a look 'cause there he goes

Chorus:
Down Guitar Street, yeah
Down Guitar Street

Down Guitar Street,
take a good look cause there he goes
Down Guitar Street

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Down Guitar, yeah, yeah, yeah
