[Verse 1]
[G]It's an ugly sight [Dm]by
[Em]the police [C]light[G][Em]
[Eb]But [Em]lonely now a[C]s the innocents
leave in [G]twos [Dm]and threes
[G]Cop str[D]aightens[Dm] up,
[C]wiping [G]blood off his hand
It [Em]says,[Eb]
[Em]Christ above, that[C]'s the worst I've
seen in [G]more than seven [Dm]days
[A]Somebody says, I think I remember [D]him,
[G]used to see him hanging [C]around
But it's hard to be [A]sure,
looking at him [Dm]now
[G]Whose hand [D]made the
[Dm]boy suf[C]fer and [G]bleed
[C]Who did the [G]deed on
[D]Basin
[G]Street[D][Dm][C][G][C][G][Dm][D]
[G]It's 429 [D]an [Dm]d ou[C]t on the airwa[G]ves
[Eb]Late [Em]night
[B]DJ plays [Em]for t[C]he lost and lonely
[G]in the late night [Dm]waves
[G]Poppin' pil[D]ls[Dm]
[C]washed down with [G]coffee[Eb]
[Em]with a little coffee blows
[C]Cigarette ash
[G]off the late news [Dm]flash
[D]The world is [G]waiting for him [D]now
[G]In the palm of his han[C]d,
he leans [Em]to ward the microphone an[A]d says,
[Em]We interrupt [Dm]this program,
[G]but out [D]there in radio [C]land,
They're all [G]asleep
[C]As the fireman [G]hoes down
Basing
