Lyrics of a song Graham Parker - Devil's Sidewalk

Like No Holding Back you can get the main melody (riff) in your head

to play over over the intro chords, you're set. 

 

Capo at 2 makes the transitions more manageable for 

solo guitar. Chords mapped out as if they were open. 

 

 

Em  C   Em    / / /

Em  C   Em    / / /

Em  C   Em  D

 

G                  C         D    C

  Took a walk down   hell's pavement

G                  C              D    C   

  Took a walk down   pulled by the tide

G                     C            D     C

  I had to make some    new arrangement

          Em                    C        G

  Oh I thought I'd reach the other side

  D             Em              C             G   

  Then someone opened up their mouth to talk

  D               Em                   C              G   D

  They said (hey!) you ain't where you think you are

              Em            C       Em      D   

  You just landed on the devil's sidewalk

 

G               C       D    C   

  Had a minor misunderstanding

G                    C           D    C   

  With a street lamp       one night

G                           C             D    C   

  The smell of burning ... rubber hit my senses

     Em                    C        G   

  I thought I'd reach the other side

   D              Em              C             G     

  When someone opened up their mouth to talk

    D              Em                   C              G  D

  They said (hey!) you ain't where you think you are

 

                Em               C           Em    D

  You're  just  stranded on the devil's sidewalk

                 Em            C           Em      D

  You're just stranded on the devil's sidewalk

 

          F#m      Am7

And it's cold, so cold 

          F#m      Am7

and it's cold, so cold 

          F#m      Am7    D

and it's cold, so cold

 

  G              D  G              C

No-one's got names, under the flames

  G           D   G              C

Everyone screams, hope its a dream

  G               D   G           C    F#m

nothing makes sense, everything's tense

               Bm              D

Wish I could say    what it meant

 

G                  C               D    C   

  Took a long look   down at the mirror

G                  C            D    C   

  Couldn't see my      face at all

G                        C             D    C   

  Just those strait lines, leading to nowhere

         Em                    C        G

  Oh I thought I'd reach the other side

   D            Em              C             G   

  When someone opened up their mouth as if to talk

   D               Em                     C          G   D

  They said (hey!) you ain't where you think you are

 

                 Em            C       Em      D

  You  just   landed on the devil's sidewalk

 

                 Em            C       Em      D

  You  just   landed on the devil's sidewalk
