B F#
Verse 1: There was this girl i used to see
C#m E
down on 42nd street
B F#
she’d walk by on her way to work
C#m E
and make the air smell so sweet
I used to sit in а coffee shop
sometimes i’d have а 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
B F#
I wanna give her my number
C#m E
wanna tell her my name
B F#
wanna climb on board that cross-town bus
C#m F#
take а chance she feels the same
Chorus:
B F # C#m E
Its just another east side story
B F# C#m F#
everybodys got а tale to tell
B F# C#m E
and like а hundred guys befroe me
B F# C#m F#
i fell under her spell
B
Its just another east side story
Verse 2:
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
Chorus
Verse 3:
C#m
Its still the same old story
Abm
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
Abm
never ever knew my name
E
she climbed on board that cross-town bus
F#
i never saw her again
Chorus
Ending:
B F# C#m E B
Its just another east side story.
