FEmG
Woo, woo
FEmG
Woo, woo
[Verse 1]
FEmG
And if the city's skyscrapers rise over this island
FEmG
Would you be glad to see Manhattan for once?
FEmG
I knew the dream, it died, JMZ line, Myrtle, and Broadway
FEmG
But I'd be glad to see Manhattan for once
[Chorus]
C
Woah-woah, living life in the city
EmFG
Woah-woah, it will never be pretty, oh, oh
C
Woah-woah, we can plan if we make it
Em
Woah-woah, we won't let 'em
FGF
They won't take it from me, no, oh, oh, woah (2, 3, 4)
[Post-Chorus]
EmGF
Woo, woo
EmG
Woo, woo
[Verse 2]
FEmG
And if you leave, don't leave me all alone
FEmG
'Cause I'll be scared, I'll be naked, I'll get cold
FEmG
And I miss my dad and Cleopatra sitting on a phone
FEmGG7
So take me back off these streets and we'll never be apart
GG7
Together from the start
G
Never, never falling back alone
[Chorus]
C
Oh-oh, Living life in the city
EmFG
Oh-oh, it will never be pretty, oh, oh
C
Oh-oh, we can plan if we make it
Em
Woah-woah, we won't let 'em
FG
They won't take it from me, no, oh, oh, woah
[Bridge]
CFC
And if the sun don't shine on me today
CFC
And if the subways flood and bridges break
AmFC
Will you just lay down and dig your grave?
CFC
Or will you rail against your dying day?
[Outro]
CFC
Da-da-da-da, da, da, da-ah-da
CFC
Da-da-da-da-ah, da, da, da
CFC
Da-da-da-da, da, da, da-ah-da
CFC
Da-da-da-da-ah, da, da, da
