Intro: B , B4(11)



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



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

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



Solo: B , 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


F *, E
