Goin to the Gate Of Horn in my memory
F#7 B7
Red light flickerin on the tablecloth big dark beer in front of me

How I wish that I was there standing at the bar
F#7 B7
Listening to Mr Gibson play on his fine guitar
B7 E
It's a big old twelve string and it went like this

Gate Of Horn Gate Of Horn glad I was Chicago born
F#7 B7 E B7
Gate Of Horn meant everything to me
E G#7 A E
I was barely seventeen little salty and a little green
F#7 B7 E B7
Gate Of Horn meant everything to me
E
There was Judy and Peter and Josh and Odetta
A B7
The Clancies and Mary and Paul made it better
E
Grossman and Tommy and Dickie and Lou
A B7 E
And when no one was looking McGuinn was there too
SOLO
E G#7
Then they came and tore it down
A E
Songbirds scattered and we all left town
F#7 B7 E
Gate Of Horn meant everything to me
E G#7 A E
Gate Of Horn Gate Of Horn glad I was Chicago born
F#7 B7 E B7
Gate Of Horn meant everything to me
