I remember standing on the corner at midnight
D C G Em
Trying to get my courage up
D C G
Em
There was this long lovely dancer in a little club downtown
D C G Em
Loved to watch her do her stuff
Bm B7sus2 Bm B7sus2
Through the long lonely nights she filled my sleep
F#m7 G Em A11
Body softly swaying to that smoky beat
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet,
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet.
D C G Em
In the pool halls the hustlers and the losers
D C G Em
Used to watch 'em through the glass
D C G Em
Well I'd stand outside at closing time
D C G Em
Just to watch her walk on past
Bm B7sus2 Bm B7sus2
Unlike all the other ladies she looked so young and sweet
F#m7 G Em A11
As she made her way alone down that empty street
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet,
D C G Em
Down on Mainstreet.
[SOLO]
Bm B7sus2 Bm B7sus2
Sometimes even now when I'm feeling lonely and beat
F#m7 G Em A11
I drift back in time and I find my feet
D Cadd9 D Cadd9
Down on Mainstreet,
D Cadd9 D Cadd9
Down on Mainstreet...
