Kids Are On High Street

Tuning: standard (capo 1st fret on the record)


Verse 1:
Bm               D                          A
In the wake of some change, stones in the pipeline
Bm                      D                          A
Like some new mountain range we leave the lowlands behind

Pre-Chorus:
Em             Bm         A            G  A
They take your photograph. You come into existence
Em         Bm              A         G   A
You realize it's your path. In this very instant

Bm   D  D   A  x2

Verse 2:
Bm           D                           A
Some heroes are we to pass outside these gates
Bm             D                         A
With a will to adjust, adjust to what it takes
Bm                D                                  A
You add another year to this and it all has gone to waste
Bm              D                                       A
Other plans have been laid to pursue your own separate fates

Repeat pre-Chorus

Bm    D   D   A

Pre-Chorus x2

Chorus:
Bm              D                                A
The kids are on High Street. The kids will not sleep tonight
Bm                   D
The kids got in a knife fight. We trained them well
              A
They're gonna be alright
Bm                       D                                        A
I'll be joining with them soon, I can't even wait to get away from you
Bm                  D                                    A
'Cause it's only in hindsight that we will know what was right to do
Em           Bm                  A  G  A
I always thought we had it made.
Em            Bm                   A  G  A
Ambition spurred the plans we laid

Repeat pre-Chorus, end on Bm
