Intro: E5  A5  A5  E5 
 
E5 
Sightseer in the middle of the night 
    F#5 
I'm looking for action, something real tight 
A5 
But can you make it when we turn on the lights 
       B5 
Of the city 
 

E5 
Street walker in the middle of the day 
F#5 
Been up all night trying to earn your pay 
A5 
Mama told you when you ran away 
         E5   A5  A5   E5          A5  A5  E5 
It's not easy,        There's no pity 
       A5  A5  E5 
In the city 
 

C#5               A5 
I've been on this corner so long 
C#5                     A5 
But it's no one's guess who's the next one  
B5 
But before you know it, it'll be gone 

But I ain't complaining, don't get me wrong 
          E5   A5  A5   E5        A5  A5  E5 
It's not easy,         In the city 
 
Street walker in the middle of your life 
Every day is like shooting dice 
You carry yourself like you carry a knife 
In the city 
 
Fast talker in the middle of the street 
Trying to hustle everyone that you meet 
Sooner or later everybody gets beat 
It's not easy There's no pity 
In the city
