Do you remember       the 21st     night

of September? Love was changing the minds      Gmaj7/A (aka A9sus4 or A7sus4)

of pretenders. While chasing the clouds        |      away

Our hearts were ringing, In the key that our souls

were singing. As we danced in the night

Remember: How the stars stole the night

away

Bm7   E9sus4   C#m7             F#m7

Ba de ya -         say do you remember

Ba de ya -         dancing in September

Bm7   E7   C#m7          F#m7         |  Gmaj7/A

Ba de ya - never was a cloudy       | day

Ba-du, ba-du, ba-du, ba-du

Ba-du, ba-du, ba-du, ba-du

Ba-du, ba-du, ba-du-da, yeah

My thoughts are with you Holding hands with your heart

to see you. Only blue talk and love, Remember          

how we knew love was here to stay

Now December - found the love that we shared

in September. Only blue talk and love,

Remember the true love we share today

Nothin' shakin' on Shakedown Street; used to be the heart of town.

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart. You just gotta poke around.

C# |: Dm C Dm :| x8

You think you've seen this town clear through. Well, well, well, you can never tell.

Nothin' here that could int'rest you.                     Well, well, well, you can never tell.

It's not because you missed out On the things that we had to start.

Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fast).

Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fast).

Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fast).

Or just overplayed your part.

Nothin' shakin' on Shakedown Street; used to be the heart of town.

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart. You just gotta poke around.

Jam thru whole thing

Since I'm passin' your way today, Well, well, well, you can never tell.

I just stopped by 'cause I want to say: Well, well, well, you can never tell.

I recall your darkness when it Cracked like a thunder cloud.

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart (Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart)

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart (Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart)

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart (Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart)

When I can hear it beat out loud.
