Los Lobos - The Neighborhood Chords

[Intro]
G
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
Brother finds trouble on the street
G
A piece of rock to make men weak
               C7             G
Trembling eyes at everyone he meets
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
Sister holds her baby in the bed
G
Dreams and wishes dancing in her head
               C7         G7
A love forever is what he said
C7             G
That's what he said
 
 
[Verse 3]
G7
Father leans back in his easy chair
G7
A pint of whiskey, just sits and stares
              C7                 G7
He don't know and doesn't really care
 
 
[Verse 4]
G7
Mother works at a nine to five
G7
Hardly makes enough to keep alive
                  C7                G7   C7
She bows her head with tears in her eyes
 
 
[Chorus]
G7                    C7
Thank you, Lord, for another day
G7               C7
Help my brother along his way
G7           C7                   G7
Please bring peace to the neighborhood, to the neighborhood
C7           Bb7             G7
Grant us all peace and serenity

[Verse 5]
G7
They're just songs sung on a dirty street
G7
Echoes of hope lie beneath their feet
                   C7        G7   C7
Struggling hard to make ends meet
 
 
[Chorus]
G7                    C7
Thank you, Lord, for another day
G7               C7
Help my brother along his way

Please bring peace to the neighborhood

Thank you, Lord, for another day
G7               C7
Help my brother along his way
G7           C7                   G7
Please bring peace to the neighborhood
C7             G7
To the neighborhood
C7             G7
To the neighborhood
C7             G7
To the neighborhood
