Dark Side Of Town chords by Eliza Gilkyson


Eliza Gilkyson Chords

C                             F
He was the black sheep of the family
C                        F
How did mama’s pride and joy
C                       F
Go from such a precious baby
       G
To the devil’s poster boy
C                            F
I’m gonna slick my hair like Elvis
C                        F
Roll my cuffs like Jerry Lee
C                         F
If the backbeat’s born in hell
                G
Then that’s the place I want to be

      F             C
Gonna be a midnight rider
      F              C
Gonna burn my candle down
F                     C
Followin that drivin’ beat
       Dm           F
To the dark side of town

C                         F
From the barrooms of Deep Ellum
C                       F
To the crashpads on the bay
C                    F
He spiraled slow and steady
       G
Down a lonely blue hiway


C                            F
I’m gonna chase my beer with whiskey
C                    F
Stick a needle in my skin
C                   F
Gonna celebrate the mystery
       G
Of the hole I’ve fallen in

             F       C
‘Cause I’m a midnite rider
      F              C
Gonna burn my candle down
F                      C
Followin’ that drivin’ beat
       Dm           F
To the dark side of town

C                   F
He loved that funky music
C                    F
He knew the backroad scenes
C                   F
Every barbeque and blues band
        G
Between here and New Orleans

C               F
He put down the bottle
C         F
October ‘89
C               F
Eased up on the throttle
       G
bought him a little time

 F                   C           
But he was a midnite rider
F                     C
He burned that candle down
F                   C
Hangin’ out on easy does it street
       Dm           F
On the dark side of town

C              F
Big Al settled down
C                        F
Along the banks of Onion creek
C                         F
With a pickup and a hound dog
       G
And a little lucky streak

C                      F
He nursed that fragile frame
C                          F
Through the hurricanes and drought
C                         F
It was a summer wind that came
    G
And blew the candle out

F                    C
But he was a midnite rider
F                     C
He burned that candle down
F              C
Followin that drivin’ beat
        Dm          F                 
To the dark side of town

       F       C
Oh you midnite rider
  F                  C
I know you’re still around
F               C
Hangin’ out on easy street
        Dm
On the dark side of town

End:
F                   C
On the dark side of town
