[Verse 1]
    A7               D               G              D          G
          Well, the eggs chase the bacon 'round the ...frying pan,
e |------------|
B |--2--3--5---|
G |------------|
D |--2--4--5---|
A |------------|
E |------------|

           D           Bm            Em7           A
And the whining dog pidgeons by the steeple bell rope,
          D               G            D         G
And the dogs tipped the garbage pails over last night,
              D             Bm             Em7     A
And there's always con - struction work bothering you...


[Chorus]
   A7         D       G       G/B   D         G
...In the neighbor - hood, in the neighbor - hood,
   G/B   D     A7     D
In the neigh - bor - hood!


[Verse 2]
     A7             D         G             D          G
          Well, Friday's a funeral, and Saturday's a bride,
e |------------|

G |------------|
D |--2--4--5---|
A |------------|
E |------------|

  D          Bm             Em7     A
Sey's got a pistol on the register side,
         D               G                 D            G
And the God-damn de - livery trucks, they make to much noise,
         D            Bm          Em7        A
And we don't get our butter de - livered no more...

[Chorus]
   A7         D       G       G/B   D         G
...In the neighbor - hood, in the neighbor - hood,
   G/B   D     A7     D
In the neigh - bor - hood!


[Verse 3]
     A7          D             G         D         G
          Well, Big Mambo's kicking his old grey hound,

E |------------|

         D              Bm                   Em7           A
And the kids can't get ice-cream 'cause the market burned down,
           D          G          D             G
And the newspaper sleeping bags blow down the lane,
          D          Bm             Em7           A
And that God-damn flatbed's got me pinned in a - gain...


[Chorus]
   A7         D       G       G/B   D         G
...In the neighbor - hood, in the neighbor - hood,
   G/B   D     A7     D
In the neigh - bor - hood!


[Verse 4]
    A7                D          G             D              G

And the window is busted, and the landlord ain't home,
      D               G            D                G
And Butch joined the army, yeah, that's where he's been,
             D         Bm             Em7          A
And the jackhammer's digging up the sidewalks a - gain...


[Chorus]
   A7         D       G       G/B   D         G
...In the neighbor - hood, in the neighbor - hood,
   G/B   D     A7     D
In the neigh - bor - hood!

[Chorus]
A7              D        G       G/B   D         G
   ...In the neighbor - hood, in the neighbor - hood,
   G/B   D        A7      D
In the neigh---- bor---- hood-----!
