I would first of all like to say that some of this was worked out by the unregistered
who did the chords version but I've just tweaked a few things and added tabbed parts for
intro, solo and outro. Also I haven't bothered putting the right spacing inbetween notes
the tabbed parts because it's very easy to work out if you just listen to the song :)

Down in a local bar
Out on the Boulevard
The sound of an old guitar
Is saving you from sinking
It's a long way down, it's a long way
Back like you never broke
You tell a dirty joke
He touches your leg
And thinks he's getting close
For now you let him
Just this once
Just for now
And just like that
It's over
Don't turn away
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Don't be afraid
But keep it all inside, all inside
When you fall apart
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Life is always hard
For the Belle of the Boulevard
B]--9------9---------|
G]----11-9---11--11--|
In all your silver rings
In all your silken things
That song you softly sing
Is keeping you from breaking
It's a long way down, it's a long way
Back here you're never lost
You shake the shivers off
You take a drink
To get your courage up
Can you believe it?
Just this once
Just for now
And just like that
It's over
Don't turn away
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Don't be afraid
But keep it all inside, all inside
When you fall apart
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Life is always hard
For the Belle of the Boulevard

Please hold on, it's alright
Please hold on, it's alright
Please hold on
Down in a local bar
Out on the Boulevard
The sound of an old guitar
Is saving you
Don't turn away
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Don't be afraid
But keep it all inside, all inside
When you fall apart
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Life is always hard
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Don't turn away
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Don't be afraid
But keep it all inside, all inside
When you fall apart
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
Life is always hard
For the Belle of the Boulevard
