E Goin to the G#7 Gate Of Horn A in my memo E ry
F#7 Red light flickerin on the tablecloth B7 big dark beer in front of me
E How I wish that G#7 I was there A standing at the E bar
F#7 Listening to Mr Gibson play B7 on his fine guitar
B7 It's a big old twelve string and it went like t E his
E A E
E Gate Of Horn G#7 Gate Of Horn A glad I was E Chicago born
F#7 Gate Of Horn meant B7 everything to E me B7
E I was barely G#7 seventeen l A ittle salty and a l E ittle green
F#7 Gate Of Horn meant ever B7 ything to E me B7
There was E Judy and Peter and Josh and Odetta
The Clanc A ies and Mary and B7 Paul made it better
E Grossman and Tommy and Dickie and Lou
And when A no one was looking B7 McGuinn was there t E oo
SOLO
E Then they came and G#7 tore it down
A Songbirds scattered and we E all left town
F#7 Gate Of Horn meant B7 everything to E me
E Gate Of Horn G#7 Gate Of Horn A glad I was E Chicago born
F#7 Gate Of Horn meant B7 everything to E me B7
