Intro:E G# C#m A E B x2
E G#
Drank in a pub on a saturday night
C#m
Me and the boys were feelin` alright
A E
Then we walked the streets feelin` loads of pride
B
Proud with our roots and our way of lives...
E G#
Then stood some geezers tried to steal the night
C#m
Stared at us, tried to pick a fight
A E
Me and the boys were waiting for the start
B
As we prepared for an aggro, oh! what a night....
Pre Chorus:
A
That`s the story of how our lives go
E
We have been treated like a bunch of snucked up fools
B
Scorned by many, understood by few
A
There`s not much things left for us to do
G#
Don`t wanna go back to dark days of mine
A
Where i`ve gone too far, i could`ve killed someone
E
But i don`t wanna sit down behaving like a cunt
G.................................................
While watching my mates doing the best they can
Chorus:
............. E
In the streets of uptown
G#
ooooooooohhhhh!
C#m
Streets of uptown
A
It is our ups and our downs.....
E B
And it goes around and around....
E
In the streets of uptown
G#
Ooooooooooh!
C#m
Streets of uptown
A
It is our laugh and our tears
E B
And it will last for years
THE WHOLE SONG REPEATS!
