Wild West End

Mark Knopfler / Dire Straits: Dire Straits (1978)

4x D D Em7 G D D Em7 G
Steppin' out to Angellucci's, for my coffee beans
D D Em7 G
checking out the movies, and the magazines
D D Em7 G
waitress she watches me, crossing from the Barocco bar
D D Em7 G
I'm getting a pickup, for my steel guitar
D D Em7 G
I saw you walking out, Shaftsbury Avenue
D D Em7 G
excuse me talking, I wanna marry you
D D Em G
this is seventh heaven street to me, don't you be so proud
D D Em7 G
You're just another angel, in the crowd.
D D Em7 G D D Em7 G
And I'm walking in the wild west end - Walking in the wild west end
D D Em7 G Am G F D C D
Walking with your wild best friend
 
Now my conductress on the number nineteen, she was a honey (she was a honey) 
pink toenails and hands all dirty with the money 
greasy greasy greasy hair, easy smile 
made me feel nineteen, for awhile 
and I went down to Chinatown 
in the backroom it's a man's world, all the money go down 
Duck inside the doorway, duck to eat 
just ain't no way, you and me, we can't beat 
And I'm walking in the wild west end - Walking in the wild west end 
Walking with your wild best friend 
 
Now the gogo dancing girl, yes I saw her 
the deejay, he say, "Here's Mandy for Ya" 
I feel all right to have seen her do that stuff 
She's dancing high, I move on by, the close-ups can get rough 
when you're walking in the wild west end - walking in the wild west end 
3x Am G F D C D
Walking with your wild best friend
