[Piano Intro riff]
bar chord 1st fret pick strings 6 3 2 3 4 x 2
[Verse]
Along these broken pavements, I let my mind run free
The past and the present, Seem just the same to me
The people I have loved most, Among these stones they dwell
And in the plainest language, The stories they did tell
[Chorus]
They pass, they pass They pass, they pass
The streets of Edinburgh, Hold half the world for me
In scores, in droves The living and the ghosts
The streets of Edinburgh Mean most to me
[Piano riff]
bar chord 1st fret pick strings 6 3 2 3 4 x 2
[Verse]
Depending on your viewpoint, This place is blessed or cursed
And in the years I’ve lived here, I’ve seen the best and worst
An air of sordid passion, A look of dirty grace
But not right in your face, It’s not that kind of place
[Chorus]
They pass, they pass They pass, they pass
The streets of Edinburgh, Hold half the world for me
In scores, in droves The living and the ghosts
The streets of Edinburgh Mean most to me
[Piano riff]
bar chord 1st fret pick strings 6 3 2 3 4 x 2
[Verse]
Down greasy potholed roadways, I watch the traffic crawl
But for the cars and buses, I give no thought at all
I think about the future, I wonder at her health
How with this human wealth, She does renew herself (hold C chord 4 measures)
[Chorus]
They pass, they pass They pass, they pass
The streets of Edinburgh, Hold half the world for me
In scores, in droves The living and the ghosts
The streets of Edinburgh Mean most to me
