F Em G
Woo, woo
F Em G
Woo, woo
[Verse 1]
F Em G
And if the city's skyscrapers rise over this island
F Em G
Would you be glad to see Manhattan for once?
F Em G
I knew the dream, it died, JMZ line, Myrtle, and Broadway
F Em G
But I'd be glad to see Manhattan for once
[Chorus]
C
Woah-woah, living life in the city
Em F G
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
F G F
They won't take it from me, no, oh, oh, woah (2, 3, 4)
[Post-Chorus]
Em G F
Woo, woo
Em G
Woo, woo
[Verse 2]
F Em G
And if you leave, don't leave me all alone
F Em G
'Cause I'll be scared, I'll be naked, I'll get cold
F Em G
And I miss my dad and Cleopatra sitting on a phone
F Em G G7
So take me back off these streets and we'll never be apart
G G7
Together from the start
G
Never, never falling back alone
[Chorus]
C
Oh-oh, Living life in the city
Em F G
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
F G
They won't take it from me, no, oh, oh, woah
[Bridge]
C F C
And if the sun don't shine on me today
C F C
And if the subways flood and bridges break
Am F C
Will you just lay down and dig your grave?
C F C
Or will you rail against your dying day?
[Outro]

Da-da-da-da, da, da, da-ah-da

Da-da-da-da-ah, da, da, da
C F C
Da-da-da-da, da, da, da-ah-da
