Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
x 2
Verse
Dm7/A and Dm7 are quick chord stabs, mostly for the bass notes.
I was walkin' down the street
Concentratin' on truckin' right
I heard a dark voice beside of me
And I looked round in a state of fright
I saw four faces one mad
A brother from the gutter
They looked me up and down a bit
And turned to each other
Chorus
Play Gm7 as an Am shape barre on the 10th fret and descend down the neck
to Cm7 and then go back up to F. listen to the recording to get the timing.
I say
I don't like cricket oh no
I love it
I don't like cricket oh no
I love it
Bridge
x 3
Don't you walk thru my words
You got to show some respect
Don't you walk thru my words
'Cause you ain't heard me out yet
Repeat Verse
Repeat everything from the verse, but a half tone higher. For example, the
verse is now:
Well he looked down at my silver chain
He said I'll give you one dollar
I said you've got to be jokin' man
It was a present from me Mother
He said I like it I want it
I'll take it off your hands
And you'll be sorry you crossed me
You'd better understand that you're alone
A long way from home
end on G#m
