C              G                  Am    Am 
It's hard to feel what's in your head
           F
Where the gas lamps grow
         C
And the garbage blows
Dm                 E7
Around the paper stands
      Am
And a baby cried
       Am 
And I saw a light
       F
And I wondered where
       D
And I wondered why
              F
There'd be a loss of life
       C     G7
Down here tonight

Chorus:
C                F
Down on Western Ford Gateway
Dm              G6        G7
That's a place where the dead say
C                 F
That a man lives no more
          C     E7      Am
That his fair share of days
F        C        E7      Am
Down on Western Ford Gateway - x2

It flowed upon the cobbled floor
For the bottle's dead
And they're drunk again
By the tavern door
And a baby cried
And I saw a light
And I wondered where
And I wondered why
There'd be a loss of life
Down here tonight

Chorus - x2
