Tuning:EADGBE
Intro:  C   F   C   F   C   F   G   F(x4)
          I went Cwalking, at street level, Feeling strange, and disheveled
          Past the Fabattoir and the glory holes Like a film noire,
          in the starring role
          To the side Cstreets, kept my nose clean
          Tasted beautiful, tasted obscene Singing,
          Coh Foh Coh Foh Coh Foh Goh Foh Coh
          FOh Coh Foh Coh Foh Goh Foh
          This is CDetroit, see the skyline
          A commotion on the assembly line
          Raise a Fglass to the Ambassador
          As she's moving you to the dance floor
          GDoes anyone here tonight remember those times?
          Can anyone here tonight just tell me what they felt like?
         In The Space do a C Chord with an added note on the third fret
         of the high E string.
         AmSo many years, Emso many lives
         AmThese are the Gstreets where they collideC  F  C  F  C  F  G  F  
         AmFrom Jimmy Hoffa Emto Cadillac
         AmSome look ahead, GI'm going Fback
        FCause I'm just looking for some sounds
        To ease the vice that squeezes us every day
       Fill With C Chord With added note earlier
        CThis was Motown, this was New France
        Where the Chippewa did the firedance
       FThat was long ago
       This is here and now
       But the memory still remains somehow Singing
      Coh Foh Coh Foh Coh Foh Goh Foh Coh
      FOh Coh Foh Coh Foh Goh Foh
       I can't Ctell you how this old story ends
       I can't touch you now, like they did back then
       Past the Fchild's play with the jump rope
       Hear the gun play, it's a tightrope
      GDoes anyone here tonight remember those times?
      Can anyone here tonight just tell me what they felt like?
      GDoes anyone here tonight remember those times?
      Somebody call the riot police, there's trouble down on 12th Street
      Ending: Either  C   F   C   F   C   F   G   F(x8)
              or Special C Chord you saw earlier for the rest of the song.

Intro: (x4)

I went walking, at street level, Feeling strange, and disheveled

Past the abattoir and the glory holes Like a film noire,

To the side streets, kept my nose clean

Tasted beautiful, tasted obscene Singing,

C F C F C F G F C

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

F C F C F G F

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

This is Detroit, see the skyline

A commotion on the assembly line

Raise a glass to the Ambassador

As she's moving you to the dance floor

Does anyone here tonight remember those times?

Can anyone here tonight just tell me what they felt like?

In The Space do a C Chord with an added note on the third fret

of the high E string.
