D Major:
Verse
| G --- | ---- | Am ---| ---- | C --- | ---- | Am --- | D ----|
| C --- | ---- | Bm --- | ---- | Am --- | ---- | C --- | D ---|
There are trees on my street and a garden with bamboo
Lots of musicians and a ballerina too
There's a minister to help you with your wedding vows
Authors and an arborist, they're all my pals

My neighborhood's a place where friends watch out for you
When your hopes are busted and your dreams don't come through
If you should see me stumble please help me to my feet
And send me on my way to Johnson Street

It's the kind of street where you might get kissed and hugged
Right around the corner is where I got mugged
So be careful where you wonder, be careful where you roam
Always make sure you can find your way home

Let's be friends forever whatever we do
You'll ___ me and I'll __for you
We'll hang out together and never feel alone
If you need a place to stay you can come to my home,

Life on this city street is such a sweet scene
So why you gotta talk about moving, Christine?

You'll count on me and I'll count on you
We'll hang out together and never feel alone
