Downtown Dirt Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Picking up pieces of [Cm]information
Down on the [D]docks
Picking up pieces of
information about [Cm]you
And how to pick [D]locks
Scouting around on the
Lower East Side
A mat[Cm]tress [C]is in [D]the rain
Those uptown ladies with their
uptown [Cm]coats
Come down here to get
[D]laid
[Bb][Fm][Bb][Fm]

[Verse 2]
[D]
It's a boring macho [Bb]trip[Fm][Bb][D]
And I'm the type that fascinates

[Verse 3]
Hey, Mrs. [D]Pamela [C]Brown
How's [D]the Dakota?
You're twenty eight years old
and your face has been lifted
[Cm]But you [C]still look so much older[D]
Your bed is soiled, your linen is [Cm]drab
You [D]got crabs.
The things they sell you,
your credit [Cm]cards
[C]I love you for it[D]
I love you for it

[Verse 4]
[Bb]I se[Fm]ll yo[Bb]u sugar.[D]
I'm a [Bb]humanitarian[Fm]
I give it [Bb]all to mys[Fm]elf that
way [D]you're clean
And I stay out of debt

[Interlude 1]
Huh
[D][Cm][D]

[Verse 5]
[D]And psychologically
You know, hey, psy[G]chologically
It's better, ah,
that I [D]think that I'm dirt
Psychologically it's better that
I think that [G]I'm dirt
Don't you know it's better
that [Cm]think that [D]I'm dirt
Hey, don't you like [Cm]to
have some [C]dirt[G]
That's all it's [C]worth [Cm]its [C]just d[D]irt
[G]Cheap
Cheap [D]damn dirt
Hey Pam, dirt
Cheap, dirt, worth dirt
Uptown [D]dirt
Dirt
