On Yonge Street
Gordon Lightfoot
From The Album - A Painter Passing Through
Capo 2nd Fret

[Intro] (Em)  (Cmaj7)  (Em)  (Cmaj7)

(Em) See the people walking (Cmaj7) up and down
(Em) See the people moving (Cmaj7) all around
(Em) On the streets of my (Cmaj7) hometown (C) on, (D) Yonge (G) Street (B7)
(Em) Longest street in the (Cmaj7) world they say
(Em) Summertime soon (Cmaj7) slips away
(Em) I hope I'll see you (Cmaj7) one fine day, (C) on (D) Yonge (G) Street

(D) Everywhere you go in a (Am) city by a (C) lake
(D) Back there in the flow you might (Am) give a hand a (C) shake
(D) Everyone you pass seems to (Am) want to say hel(C)lo
(D) Even late at night on the (Am) freshly fallen (C) snow (Cmaj7)

See the children jumping all around
See the parents looking up and down
Upon the streets of my hometown, on Yonge Street
It's a mean street if you choose
It's a lean street when you lose
An in between street when you cruise along Yonge street

Everywhere you go in a city by a lake
You'll be sure to find it's a case of give and take
Everyone you pass seems to want to say hello
Even late at night when the streets are all aglow

It's the longest street in the world
With the most feet in the world
Another street where boy meets girl, on Yonge street
See the people walking up and down
See the people moving all around
Those are the streets of my hometown on, Yonge Street

Everywhere you walk people almost say hello
Even late at night when the streets are all aglow

On Yonge street, on Yonge street
