[E] [E] [E] [A] [D] Somewhere out on [A]that [E]horizon
Out beyond the neon lights
I know there must be something better
[D]But there's nowhere [E]else in [A]sight. Wo-[E]Wo-oh-oh-oh [D]
It's survival in the city, children
When you live from day to day
City streets don't have much pity, no
When you're [E]down that's where you [A]stay
[A] [D/A] [E/A]IN THE CITY [D/A] [E] [A]
IN THE CITY [G] [D] [A] [E]
Guitar solo
I was born here in the city
With my back against the wall
Nothing grows and life ain't very pretty
No-one's there to catch you when you fall
Somewhere out on that horizon
Far away from the neon sky
I know there must be something, must be something better
And I can't stay another night
[A] [D/A] IN TH[E/A]THE CITY [D/A] [E] [A]
IN THE CITY [G] [D] [A] [E]
