Manhattan

Intro: Em, G, D, Am         Em

Verse:
                G                  
In the city, she wakes, before the 
        D
break of day,
                 Am                
Cold water on her face, so lonely
   Em

                     G             
Between the glass and knife, she'd 
               D
like to start a fire,
                    Am             
She'd burn the city down, she'd 
            C
burn it all for love


Chorus:
                G                  
Can you see the people, staring at 
    D
the steeples
                      Am         C
Wondering why they're so lonely, so 
lonely?
                   G               
Can you hear their voices, joining 
     D
in a chorus,
                   Am         C
Wondering why it's so lovely, so 
lovely?


Em, G, D, Am          Em

Verse:
                 G                 
In the city, she wakes, the smoke 
          D
is cleared away,
                 Am           
The fire's just a flame, still 
               Em
breathing,
               G             
She made a big debut on Fifth 
 D
Avenue,
                       Am          
Then the village voice review took 
                  C
the fire from her eyes


Chorus:
               G                   
Can you see the people, staring at 
   D
the steeples
                      Am         C
Wondering why they're so lonely, so 
lonely?
                   G               
Can you hear their voices, joining 
     D
in a chorus,
                   Am         C
Wondering why it's so lovely, so 
lovely?


Em, G, D, Am          Am


                   C               
We're walking right beside the ones
           G
 we used to fight,
                  Em            D 
The flag is waving white, the flag
            Am
 is waving white,
                    C              
We see for the first time, when we 
         G
stop the fight,
                  Em            D 
The flag is waving white, the flag
            C
 is waving white


Chorus:
               G                   
Can you see the people, staring at 
   D
the steeples
                      Am         C
Wondering why they're so lonely, so 
lonely?
                   G               
Can you hear their voices, joining 
     D
in a chorus,
                   Am         C
Wondering why it's so lovely, so 
lovely?


G, D, Am, C
