INTRO
Dm
 
RIFF to Dm (4x)
 
    G                       C/G F  C9
You tell me this town ain't got no heart
RIFF
Well, well, well, you can never tell
    G                        C/G F C9
The sunny side of the street is  dark
RIFF
Well, well, well, you can never tell

Fmaj7
Maybe that's cause it's midnight
       Em7
In the dark of the moon besides
Fmaj7
Maybe the dark is from your eyes
Em7                               Em7  Ebm7
Maybe the dark is from your eyes
Dm7
Maybe the dark is from your eyes
    G
You know you got such dark eyes
 
C7sus4                             C7
Nothin' shakin' on shakedown street
C7sus4                      C7
Used to be the heart of town
C7sus4                                     C7
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
C7sus4                     C7
You just gotta poke around
 
RIFF to Dm (4x)
 
    G                      C/G        F   C9
You think you've seen this town clear through
RIFF
Well, well, well, you can never tell
G                       C/G      F C9
Nothin' here that could interest you
RIFF
Well, well, well, you can never tell
 
Fmaj7
It's not because you missed out
       Em7
On the thing that we had to start
Fmaj7
Maybe you had too much too fast
Em7                             Em7  Ebm7
Maybe you had too much too fast
Dm7
Maybe you had too much too fast
   G
Or just over played your part
 
C7sus4                              C7
Nothin' shakin' on shakedown street
C7sus4                       C7
Used to be the heart of town
C7sus4                                     C7
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
C7sus4                    C7
You just gotta poke around
 
BREAK on RIFF to Dm (4x)
 
G                      C/G F  C9
Since I'm passing your way today
RIFF
Well, well, well, you can never tell
G                          C/G  F  C9
I just stopped in 'cause I want to say
RIFF
Well, well, well, you can never tell
 
Fmaj7
I recall your darkness
        Em7
When it crackled like a thundercloud
      Fmaj7
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
Em7                                        Em7  Ebm7
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
      Dm7
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
     G
When I can hear it beat out loud!

(Repeat 3x) 
C7sus4                              C7
Nothin' shakin' on shakedown street
C7sus4                       C7
Used to be the heart of town
C7sus4                                     C7
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
C7sus4                    C7
You just gotta poke around
 
Jam Out on C7sus4 to C7
End on RIFF to Dm
