Intro: B5 , B4(11)



B5
Every town has a secret heart that beats
B4(11)
And every citizen an underground
B5
I set my clock to a bootleg meter and
B4(11)
broken hands spinning round and round



E5
I'm on my way just like every day
        C#5               D#m(#5)
to get milk and kerosene
E5
But my reflection in the butcher's window
      F5 *
isn't me
    E5     B5  B5  B5  E5
I freeze

          B5
This is Chinatown
    B4(11)
A state of mind
          B5
This is Chinatown
            B4(11)
It's just a state of mind



Solo: B5 , B4(11)



The sky was blue but I wouldn't know
I was counting cracks in the concrete
I'd memorized them from A to B
A choreography, a part of me


It's not the future, it's not the past
It's not now
The price will double if you try to look
them in the eye
Don't ask why


'cause this is Chinatown
a state of mind
This is Chinatown
a state of mind


F5 *, E5


     B5 , B4(11)
In Chinatown...

Read my fortune in my MetroCard

You'll see nothing if you search too hard
