Verse: 

D                                    C         G    Em
I remember standing on the corner at midnight,
                 D          C     G       Em
Tryin' to get my courage up
               D                               C             G   Em
There was this long, lovely dancer in a little club downtown
                     D          C G Em
I loved to watch her do her stuff
            Bm           Bsus2       Bm        Bsus2    F#m
Through the long, lonely nights, she filled my sleep,
                G               Em        G/A
Her body softly swayin' to that smoky beat


Chorus (w/riff):
        D         C     G   Em
Down on Mainstreet 
Down on Mainstreet


In the pool halls, the hustlers and the losers,
I used to watch 'em through the glass
Well I'd stand outside at closing time
Just to watch her walk on past
Unlike all the other ladies, she looked so young and sweet
As she made her way alone down that empty street


Down on Mainstreet 
Down on Mainstreet


Solo (over chords)


And sometimes even now, when I'm feelin' lonely and beat,
I drift back in time, and I find my feet


Down on Mainstreet, down on Mainstreet
Down on Mainstreet, down on Mainstreet
Down on Mainstreet, down on Mainstreet

there is a piano accompaniment
