E5 E5 E5 A5 D5                 A5    E5
         Somewhere out on that horizon

         Out beyond the neon lights

         I know there must be something better
         D5                   E5       A5             E5        D5
         But there's nowhere else in sight.     Wo-oh-oh-oh

         It's survival in the city, children

         When you live from day to day

         City streets don't have much pity, no
                     E5                     A5
         When you're down that's where you stay


A5        D5   E5         D5     E5    A5
               IN THE CITY
                                              G5   D5  A5  E5
               IN THE CITY

         Guitar solo

         I was born here in the city

         With my back against the wall

         Nothing grows and life ain't very pretty

         No-one's there to catch you when you fall

         Somewhere out on that horizon

         Far away from the neon sky

         I know there must be something, must be something better

         And I can't stay another night

         Repeat IN The City, then end
