Lyrics
This ci ty nev er sleeps.
I hear the peo ple walk by when it’s to late.
(Em7)Si rens bleed through my win dow sill, I can’t close (C)my eyes.
(Em7)Don’t con trol what I’m (D)in to.
This is tow er is a (D)live.
the lights that blind keep me a me com wake.
pan y when I need it.
(Em7)Hood up and lace un tied,
sleep I don’t fills think I’m my gon na mind.
make it (Em7)Can’t con trol what I’m (D)in to.
Lon don calls me a stran ger,
a trav el er.
This is now my home,
my home.
Hoo!
(Em)Oh,
I’m burn ing on the (G)back street.
(Em)Oh,
stuck here sit ting in the (G)back seat.
(Em)Oh,
I’m (C)blaz ing on the (Gmaj7)street.
(CN.C.)What I do is n’t up to you.
If the cit y nev er sleeps, then that makes two.
The pave ment is my friend,
I it will take me where by I need to go.
(Em7)I find it trips me up dow sill, I and puts (C)me down.
(Em7)This is not what I’m (D)used to.
And the shop a cross the (D)road
ful fils my needs and gives a me com wake.
pan y when I need it.
(Em7)Voic es speak through my walls,
sleep I don’t fills think I’m my gon na mind.
make it (Em7)past to mor row.
I’m (D)in to.
Lon don calls me a stran ger,
a trav el er.
This is now my home,
my home.
Hoo!
(Em)Oh,
I’m burn ing on the (G)back street.
(Em)Oh,
stuck here sit ting in the (G)back seat.
(Em)Oh,
I’m (C)blaz ing on the (Gmaj7)street.
(CN.C.)What I do is n’t up to you.
If the cit y nev er sleeps, then that makes two.
And my lungs hurt
and my ears bled.
With the sound of the cit y life e choed in my head.
Do I need this
to keep me a live?
The (C)traf fic stops and starts, but I (D)need (CN.C.)to move a long.
Lon don calls me a stran ger.
This is now
my home,
home.
Hoo!
