Verse 1
(G major) It's an ugly sight (D minor) by
(E minor) the police (C major) light (G major) (E minor)
(E flat major) But (E minor) lonely now as (C major) the innocents
leave in (G major) twos and threes (D minor)
(G major) Cop (D major) straightens up, (D minor)
(C major) wiping (G major) blood off his hand
It (E minor) says, (E flat major)
(E minor) Christ above, (C major) that's the worst I've
seen in (G major) more than seven (D minor) days
(A major) Somebody says, I think I remember (D major) him,
(G major) used to see him hanging (C major) around
But it's hard to be (A major) sure,
looking at him (D minor) now
(G major) Whose hand (D major) made the
(D minor) boy suf (C major) fer and (G major) bleed
Who (C major) did the (G major) deed on
(D major) Basin
(G major) Street (D major) (D minor) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (D minor) (D major)
(G major) It's 429 (D major) an (D minor) (C major) d out on the (G major) airwaves
Late (E flat major) (E minor) night
(B major) DJ plays (E minor) (C major) for the lost and lonely
(G major) in the late night (D minor) waves
(G major) Poppin' (D major) pills (D minor)
(C major) washed down with (G major) coffee (E flat major)
(E minor) with a little coffee blows
(C major) Cigarette ash
(G major) off the late news (D minor) flash
(D major) The world is (G major) waiting for him (D major) now
(G major) In the palm of his (C major) hand,
he leans (E minor) to ward the microphone (A major) and says,
(E minor) We interrupt this program, (D minor)
(G major) but out (D major) there in radio (C major) land,
They're all (G major) asleep
(C major) As the fireman (G major) hoes down
Basing
(D major) Street (G major)
Basing Street
