C Dm F


[Verse]
 C                      Dm
All up and down the boulevard
 F                      C
All the boys are looking hard
 C                      Dm
Trying to score, trying to make a pass
 F                      C
Anything at all, don't have to last


[Verse]
 C                  Dm
Angel, she's afraid now
 F                    C
She don't know about street guys
 C                    Dm
She don't know how to hurt you deep
 F                    C
Let her play for keeps


[Chorus]
    C            Am      G
Cut you like a knife, angel
    F
When you survive
    C             Am     G
Cut you like a knife, angel
    F
Street life


[Verse]
    C                      Dm
Blue hard hands and car trucks
    F                      C
Hustlers, lovers, come out the dark
    C                      Dm
They all know and it's a fact
    F                      C
Angel, you better stand back


[Verse]
    C                       Dm
Sun cools down, the street come to life
    F                       C
Here come the boys with all the drive
    C              Dm
Any woman can do this
    F              C
They don't really care


[Chorus]
   C            Am       G
Cut you like a knife, angel
   F
When you survive
   C             Am      G
Cut you like a knife, angel
   F
Street life


[Verse]
   C                    Dm
All up and down the boulevard
   F                    C
All the boys are looking hard
   C                    Dm
Trying to score, trying to make a pass
   F          C
Anything at all


[Chorus]
  C              Am     G
Cut you like a knife, angel
  F
When you survive
  C              Am     G
Cut you like a knife, angel
  F
Street life
  C              Am     G
Cut you like a knife, angel
  F
When you survive
  C              Am     G
Cut you like a knife, angel
  F
Street life
