                  1 And 9 





Capo 2nd

[recording]
Bronx bound 1, 42nd street times square next.
Stand clear of the closing doors
 
G,Em,D,C,D

G
Bronx bound uptown, that's my line.
       Em
Don't look like much, but it's all mine.
     D
The end of the road is all I know,
C                                    C
242nd street, I'm almost home.


      G
The roar of the crowd from Gaelic Park
Em
underage guinness at the terminal bar
      D
the lights on broadway never looked so fine
        C                  D                 
as they do underneath the one and nine


          Em
Well the din of the subway cars 
C
sounds like a heavenly choir
          Em
and the shower of sparks they bring
C                  D
shine like angels' wings


         Em
and the writing on the concrete walls
         G
is all I need
                    C
to lead me to salvation
        D               G
underneath the one and nine


G
jam packed nights at sam mcguire's
Em
that's where I first caught the fire 
    D
I jumped on stage, sang dirty old town
    C                        D
it broke my heart when that joint closed down



          Em
Well the din of the subway cars 
C
sounds like a heavenly choir
          Em
and the shower of sparks they bring
C                  D
shine like angels' wings


         Em
and the writing on the concrete walls
         G
is all I need
                    C
to lead me to salvation
        D               G
underneath the one and nine

*Not sure of the chords, if you know them, let me know* 
I met my love by the gas works wall
I dreamed a dream by the old canal
I Kissed my girl by the factory wall
It's a Dirty old town
It's a Dirty old town

        G
its a world of troubles

I sure had some
         Em
I don't know where I'm going

but I know where I'm from
          D
I'm from new york town, the very best part
          C                         D
with the guts and the grit and the love and the heart

    G(Hold)                      
so when my time has finally come
G       Em(Hold)
buy me one last token for one last run
Em       D(Hold)
with a sweet slow song, and a bottle of wine
C
spread my ashes neath the one and nine

G,Em,D,

C(hold)                         C,G
242nd Street, I'm almost home
