C  
I would love to be the lucky one on Chill Avenue  
Am  
Who could keep your hear warm when ice has turned it blue  
G  
But with the beggin' sleeping losers as they turn in for the night  
C  
I'm looking back for home and I can see the lights  
C  
I should be jumpin' shoutin' that I made it all this way  
Am  
From Camden Town Station to 44th and 8th  
G  
Not many make it this far and many say we're great  
C  
But just like them we walk on an' we can't escape our fate  
Am F G  
Can't you hear the sighing  
C F  
Eastside Jimmy and Southside Sue  
 G Csus C  
Both say they needed something new  
 
 C  
CHORUS: So I'm standing at the gates of the West  
 Em  
I burn money at the lights of the sign  
 F G C  
The city casts a shadow of the perfect crime  
I'm standing at the gates of the East  
 Em  
I take my pulse and the pulse of my friend  
 F G C  
The city casts a shadow, will I see you again?  
 
The immigrants an' remnants of all the glory years  
Are clustered around the bar again for another round of beers  
Little Richard's in the kitchen playing spoons and plates  
He's telling the waitress he's great  
Ah say I know somewhere back'n'forth in time  
Out on the dustbowls, deep in the roulette mine  
Or in a ghetto cellar only yesterday  
There's a move into the future for the U.S.A.  
I hear them crying  
Eastside Jimmy and Southside Sue  
Both say they needed something new  
 
CHORUS  
 
C Em Em Am Am F F  
C Em Em Am Am F F  
C Em Em Am Am F F C  
(with chords from chorus)  
Standing at the gates of the West  
In the shadow again  
Standing at the gates of the West  
In the shadow again  
In the shadow again
