Gates Of The West
The Clash
C
Verse 1
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 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
Pre Chorus
Am F G Can't you hear the sighing C F/C C F Eastside Jimmy and Southside Sue G Csus4 C Both say they needed something new
Chorus
C 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?
Verse 2
C The immigrants an' remnants of all the glory years Am Are clustered around the bar again for another round of beers G Little Richard's in the kitchen playing spoons and plates C He's telling the waitress he's great C Ah say I know somewhere back'n'forth in time Am Out on the dustbowls, deep in the roulette mine G Or in a ghetto cellar only yesterday C Am There's a move into the future for the U.S.A.
Pre Chorus
F G I hear them crying C F/C C F Eastside Jimmy and Southside Sue G Csus4 C Both say they needed something new
Chorus
C 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?
