D5                                      A5
Standin at the airport lookin down the strip,
                  A5                      [ C5 ]
She was cryin her eyes, she was bitin her lip
C5                         G5
Seven-four-seven just left from gate eleven
            C5                            G5
And there's no turnin round cos it's just leavin the ground
           A5                [break]
And gettin higher (higher)

D5                                      A5
Standin at the dock-side lookin out to sea
           A5                        [ C5 ]
When I saw her but she did not see me
          C5                         G5
There she stood with no hope because she'd missed the boat
           C5                            G5
And as her dreams sailed away she headed back for the day,
            A5                [break]
Back to the city (city)

G5            A5
 Night in the city, o-o-oh,
G5          A5
 Madness at mid-mid-mid-midnight,
G5           A5   Bb5     C5     [ D5 ]
Night in the city drivin you insane

      D5          
I was runnin kinda lonely at the city place
         A5
I waited for an hour, I never saw her face
      C5                          G5
Crazy ladies that wait and slide around like a snake
             C5                     G5
I just can't take anymore, Im going in through the door
