City Lights:Ivory Joe Hunter. #92 ( just under the wire) on ACE Records in 1959. INTRO: Ab5 C#5 Eb5 Ab5 #1. Ab5 C#5 The bright array of city lights as far as I can see.. Eb5 The Great White Way shines through the Ab5 night, for lonely guys like me. #2. Ab5 The cabarets and honky tonks, their C#5 Eb5 flashing signs invite..a broken heart to Eb5 Ab5 C#5 Ab5 lose itself, in the glow of city lights. CHORUS: Eb5 Ab5 Lights that say, forget her name, in a glass of sherry wine. Eb5 Ab5 Lights that offer other girls, are empty hearts like mine. #3. Ab5 C#5 They paint a pretty picture, of a world that's gay and bright. Eb5 But it's just a mask for loneliness..behind Ab5 C#5 Ab5 those city lights. (INTERLUDE:) Eb5 Ab5 C#5 Ab5 CHORUS: Eb5 The lights that say, forget her love, in a Ab5 different atmosphere. Eb5 Ab5 The lights that lure are nothing, but a masquerade for tears. #4. Ab5 C#5 They paint a pretty picture, but my arms can't hold them tight. Eb5 And I just can't say, I love you, to a street Ab5 of city lights. OUTRO: C#5 Ab5 City lights.. A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
