INTRO:  E

E 
On the East side of Nashville, behind those swingin' doors
                            E/G
They party every night like we just won the war
A
Slip on your tank-top, black lace and leopard spots
    E    E/G
Oh baby, it drives me crazy
A                               B7                      E
We can cut lose like Bonnie and Clyde on the Lower East Side
B-A         E
Lower East Side of life


Just around the corner, the mercantile exchange
Boys and girls are boppin', some things never change
Don't need no cover charge, we ain't gotta be livin' large
To be rockin, just come knockin'
Every night that big cadillac rides through the Lower East Side
Lower East Side of life


    A                                                     A-E
The Starlight Club is reelin', you can get that old time feelin'
          E/G         E
With your flame-red hair
        A                                     A-B7
They're flyin' at the Slowbar, underneath the radar
B7 
No tellin' who's jammin' there


SOLO


BRIDGE:
C#m                 B-A-E   B7                 E
Hobos and debutants collide on the Lower East Side
B-A         E            B-A        E
Lower East Side of Life, Lower East Side of Life
B-A         E            B-A         E
Lower East Side of Life, Lower East Side of Life


E
On the East Side of Nashville behind those swingin' doors
                                 E/G                     E
They play that country music the way they did before
