Em                        (each chord only requires one stroke)
The sun goes down

the night grows in
Am
You can feel it starting all over again.
Em
The moon comes up and the music calls
Am
You're gettin' tired of staring at the same four walls.
Em
You're out of your room and down on the street
Am
Looking through the crowd in the midnight heat.
Em
The traffic roars and the sirens scream
Am
You look at the faces

it's just like a dream
Am7                                       Bm
Nobody knows where you're going
Am7                                    Bm
nobody cares where you've been.
Em7
'Cause you belong to the city
C9
you belong to the night
Am                                                            Em
Living in a river of darkness beneath the neon light.
Em7
You were born in the city
C9
concrete under your feet
Am
It's in your moves
Em
it's in your blood:
Bm
You're a man of the streets.
Em
When you said goodbye you were on the run


Am
Tryin' to get away from the things you've done.
Em
Now you're back again and you're feeling strange
Am
So much has happened and nothing has changed.
Am7                                       Bm
Still don't know where you're going
Am7                                      Bm
You're still just a face in the crowd.
Em7
You belong to the city
C9
you belong to the night
