16th Avenue Acordes

	  16th Avenue 
Lacy J. Dalton 
 
This is one helluva song. Thanks for requesting this!! 
 
 
G  G/F  Em  D  G 
 
 
         G                                D              G      G/F#  
From the corners of the country, from the cities and the farms  
     Em                 C               G                 D 
With years and years of living tucked up underneath their arms 
     Em             C                  G                C   
They walk away from everything just to see a dream come true  
       G         G/F#     Em       D        C    D  G          
So God bless the boys who make the noise on 16th Avenue 
 
 
 
Same chord progression throughout song 
 
With a million dollar spirit and an old flattop guitar  
They drive to town with all they own in a hundred dollar car 
?Cause one time someone told them ?bout a friend of a friend they knew  
Who owns, you know, a studio on 16th Avenue 
 
Now some were born to money they?ve never had to say ?Survive?  
And others swing a 9 pound hammer just to stay alive 
There?s cowboys, drunks, and Christians mostly white and black and blue  
They?ve all dialed the phone collect to home from 16th Avenue 
 
G  G/F  Em  D  G 
 
Ah, but then one night in some empty room where no curtains ever hung  
Like a miracle some golden words rolled off of someone?s tongue 
And after years of being nothing they?re all looking right at you  
And for a while they?ll go in style on 16th Avenue 
 
It looked so uneventful, so quiet and discreet  
But a lot of lives where changed down on that little one way street 
?Cause they walk away from everything just to see a dream come true  
So God bless the boys who make the noise on 16th Avenue 
 
G  G/F  Em  D  G 
 
Repeat 1st verse and fade
