Grateful Dead



INTRO: Dm C/D Dm    Dm Dm C/D C/D Dm     (2 times)

VERSE:
    G                              C/G F C9 (intro pattern)
You tell me this town ain't got no heart   (Well well well, you can never tell)
    G                           C/G  F C9   (intro pattern)
The sunny side of the street is dark       (Well well well, you can never tell)
F                       Fmaj7
Maybe that's cause it's midnight
        Em7
and the dark of the moon besides
Fmaj7
Maybe the dark is from your eyes
Em7                              Ebm7
Maybe the dark is from your eyes
Dm7                                     G
Maybe the dark is from your eyes... You know you got such dark eyes

CHORUS:
C7sus4             C7               C7sus4 C7
Nothin' shakin' on Shakedown Street
C7sus4                  C7   C7sus4 C7
Used to be the heart of town
      C7sus4                  C7           C7sus4 C7
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
    C7sus4            C7    C7sus4 C7        (play intro pattern 2 times)
You just got to poke around

VERSE:
You think you seen this town clear through (Well well well, you can never tell)
Nothin' here that could interest you       (Well well well, you can never tell)
It's not beacuse you missed out
On the thing that we had to start
Maybe you had too much too fast
Maybe you had too much too fast
Maybe you had too much too fast... And just overplayed your part

[CHORUS]

VERSE:
Since I'm passin' your way today           (Well well well, you can never tell)
I just stopped in cause I want to say      (Well well well, you can never tell)
I recall your darkness
When it crackled like a thunder cloud
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart... I can hear it beat out load

[CHORUS]
