Sleep like a baby

my little lady

Dream till the sunrise

While you sleep there's a whole world coming alive
F                     C
Able and his brother, fighting one another

The Avenues and Alleyways

Where the strong and the quick alone can survive
F                      C
Look around the jungle see the rough and tumble
F           G        C                 
Listen to a squealer cry 
F                   C
Then a little later in the morning paper
F              G      C    C  G   C G F G
read about the way he died

Wake up my pretty

Stay through the daytime

safe in the sunshine

Stay till the daytime turns into the night

In the Avenues and Alleyways
        Bb                        F
Where a mans gotta work out which side he's on
F                  C
Any way he chooses chances are he loses
F              G        C
No one gets to live too long
C                         Em
The avenues and alleyways
          Bb               F
Where the soul of a man is easy to buy
F                    C
Everybody's wheeling everybody's stealing
F               G      C
All the low are living high 
F                    C
Every city's got 'em can we ever stop 'em
F              G     C
Some of us are gonna try.
