/ / / / / / / /
Verse 1:
F#maj9 G#m9/C# G#m7/C# [continue]
Summer turns the stove on
And fun begins to cook
Barefoot walks in Baltimore
With empty pocketbook
Laugh at sizzling sidewalks
Don't step on the cracks
Old folks try to catch their breath
As children catch their jacks

Verse 2:
Gmaj9 Am9/D Am7/D [continue]
Baltimore is music
Dancing in the street
Half-chewed Dubble Bubble
Tugging at our feet
Melted tar in crosswalks
Crab shells in the park
Pavement frying our poor toes
Until long after dark
[repeat chorus]
Bridge:
Em7 Cm7
When night comes we can go walking
Gmaj9 A13
On the shores of Chesapeake Bay
Am9 D9
A silence tailored for talking
G#6 G#m7/C#
And a love with so much to say
[repeat intro]
[repeat chorus 1]
Coda [repeat to fade]:
(vibes solo)
Gmaj9 Am9/D Am7/D Gmaj9 Am9/D Am7/D
