Intro: B , F# , C#m , E .
BF#Verse 1: There was this girl i used to see
C#mE
down on 42nd street
BF#
she'd walk by on her way to work
C#mE
and make the air smell so sweet
-
I used to sit in a coffee shop
sometimes i'd have a cup
when she'd got by she'd light up the sky
like the sun coming up
-
she'd be standing by the bus stop
driver opened up the door
i'd just sit and watch her
getting on the 104
-
BF#
I wanna give her my number
C#mE
wanna tell her my name
BF#
wanna climb on board that cross-town bus
C#mF#
take a chance she feels the same
Chorus: BF#C#mE
Its just another east side story
BF#C#mF#
everybodys got a tale to tell
BF#C#mE
and like a hundred guys befroe me
BF#C#mF#
i fell under her spell
B---
Its just another east side story
Verse 2:( Chords same as 1st Verse )
Some things you hold on to
some you just let go
seems like the ones which you cant have
are the ones you want the most
-
I think about her sometimes
i wonder if she was real
and if i ever find her
i'm gonna tell her how i feel
ChorusVerse 3:C#m
Its still the same old story
G#m
its still the same old game
E
up there on the east side
F#
life goes on the same
C#m
She never knew my number
G#m
never ever knew my name
E
she climbed on board that cross-town bus
F#
i never saw her again
ChorusEnding:B, F#, C#mEB
Its just another east side story.
