If you play along with the song it doesn't really sound correct, but it fits with the
I, and probably you, sing it, so give it a try.
C
F G C
There's a crooked street in Houston town
F G C
It's a well born path I've traveled down
F G C Am
Now there's ruin in my name, I wish I never got off the train
F G C
I wished I'd listened to the words you said
C
Don't go down to Fannin Street
F C
Don't go down to Fannin Street
F C Em Am
Don't go down to Fannin Street
C F
You'll be lost and never found
C F
You can never turn around
C G
Don't go down
G C
to Fannin Street
F G C
Once I held you in my arms, I was sure
F G C
And I took that silent step through the gilded door
F G C Em
Am
The desire to have much more, all the glitter and the roar
F G C
Now I know just where the sidewalk ends
C
Don't go down to Fannin Street
F C
Don't go down to Fannin Street
F C Em Am
Don't go down to Fannin Street
C F
You'll be lost and never found
C F
You can never turn around
C G C
Don't go down to Fannin Street
Dm G C
When I was young I thought only of getting out
Dm G C
I said goodbye to my street, goodbye to my house
F G C Em
Am
Give a man gin, give a man cards, give an inch he takes a yard
F G C
And I rue the day that I stepped off this train
C
Don't go down to Fannin Street
F C
Don't go down to Fannin Street
F C Em Am
Don't go down to Fannin Street
C F
You'll be lost and never found
C F
You can never turn around
C G C
Don't go down to Fannin Street
