G# At night I walk this stinkin' street Past the crazies on my block And I see the same old faces And I hear that same old talk And I'm searching for the latest thing A break in this routine I'm talkin' some new kicks Ones like you ain't never seen Chorus: G# This is home This is Mean Street It's our home C# D# The only one I know And we don't worry 'bout tomorrow Cause we're sick of these four walls Now what'd ya think is nothing Might be something after all Now you know this ain't no through street The end is dead ahead The poor folks play for keeps down here They're the living dead Chorus: Come on down Down to Mean Street They're dancing now Out on Mean Street Dance, baby! It's always here and now, my friend It ain't 'once upon a time' It's all over but the shouting I've come to take what's mine We're searching for the latest thing A break in this routine Talkin' some new kicks Ones like you ain't never seen Chorus: This is home This is Mean Street It's our home Only one I know G# (This is home) See, a gun is real easy (This is Mean Street) C# In this desperate part of town (This is home) G# Turns you from hunted into hunter (This is Mean Street) C# You go and hunt somebody down But hear me now (This is home) G# Somebody said, "Fair Warning, Lord! (This is Mean Street) C# Lord, strike that poor boy down!" | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsC#  D#  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
