Verse 1:
C# F#
Savin Hill my starting point, down the beach with a few beers
C#
Didn't know what life had in for us
C# F#
Starting out at St. Margarets, up there on that lonely hill
C#
I got my start in 1970
C#* F#*
Moved on down to Motley school, down to St. Willies from there
C#*
The catholic golden rule got hooks in me
C#*
Sister Robad, Ms. Coughlin, the teachers and their authority
F#* C#
I put my fists up to them at every turn
Chorus:
F# G# F# G#
Savin Hill it was my start, beginning of a lifetime,

I still remember those days clearly

Cannot forget my roots, or when it really started,
F# G# C#
Savin Hill down by the beach
Verse 2:
C#* F#*
Grades on to eight were nuts, hi-jinx, stunts and pranks pulled out
C#*
Me and my cousin Bill, the terrible two
C#*
Danny, Joey, Robby, John, Saxon and Victoria
F#* C#*
Many a long neck bottle cracked down there
Chorus 2:
F# G# F# G#
Savin Hill it was my start, from the courts back to the park
F# G# C#
The weekend time seemed so **** free

If you had my back, I took yours, our obligatory creed
F# G# C#
Savin Hill down by the beach

Bridge:
(Interlude)
Do you remember the tennis courts?
The bungalow or Harpo's bench
(Interlude)
Do you remember jumping that bridge?
The risks we took and our chances?

If a cohort was lost, he was found

If things got hot, Dorchester stayed cool
B C#
No other townies came toward us fools

Savin Hill down by the beach

It's these memories I'll go preach (these lines x2- solo played after first)
C# F# B C#
Savin Hill is where it all began
