# This is my version of step. I realize it is higher than the original but easier to play, and it's better for higher voices.



C            Cmaj7                         Am                G
Every time I see   you in the world, you always step to my girl

Intro -  C  Cmaj7  Am  G  F  C  F  G x2


Verse 1:
C                            Cmaj7
Back back way back I used to front like Angkor Wat

Am                          G
Mechanicsburg Anchorage and Dar es Salaam

F                             C                   F                G
While home from New York was champagne and disco tapes from L.A. slash San 

Francisco

      C                 Cmaj7
But actually Oakland and not Alameda
     Am                               G
Your girl was in Berkeley with her Communist reader
F                         C
Mine was entombed within boombox and walkman
F                    G
I was a hoarder but girl that was back then



Bridge :
(he hums badoom with it)

C  Cmaj7  Am  G



The Chorus is the same as the verse:
   
     C                   Cmaj7            Am
The gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out
          G
What you on about?
    F            C       F               G
I feel it in my bones, I feel it in my bones
     C                Cmaj7          Am
I'm stronger now, I'm ready for the house
        G              
Such a modest mouse, 
   F          C        F            G
I can't do it alone, I can't do it alone

C           Cmaj7                       Am                 G
Every time I see you in the world, you always step to my girl

F  C  F  G


Verse 2:

C                      Cmaj7               
Ancestors told me that their girl was better
       Am                          G
She's richer than Croesus, she's tougher than leather
F                         C
I just ignored all the details of a past life
F                     G
Stale conversation deserves but a bread knife
     C                              Cmaj7
And punks who would laugh when they  saw  us together
       Am                      G
Well, they didn't know how to dress for the weather
F                           C
I can still see them there huddled on Astor
F                         G
Snow falling slow to the sound of the master
 

Chorus


Bridge 
(just play the same chord pattern)


Verse 3:

C                          Cmaj7 
Wisdom's a gift, but you'd trade it for youth
Am                      G 
Age is an honor - it's still not the truth
F                           C
We saw the stars when they hid from the world
F                            G
You cursed the sun when it stepped to your girl
C                       Cmaj7  
Maybe she's gone and I can't resurrect her
     Am                       G
The truth is she doesn't need me to protect her
F                                  C
We don't know the true death, the way of all flesh
F                      G
Everyone's dying, but girl - you're not old yet

Chorus
