EEEEEEEE5addD E6 E5addD E E5addD E6 E
Light up, light up, light up your lazy blue eyes
A/E E5addEb E A/E F#m11
Moon's up, night's up, taking the town by surprise
E5addD E6 EaddD E E5addD E6 E
Night time, night time, day left an hour ago
A/E E5addEb E A/E F#m11
City light time, must you get ready so slow
E5 E Esus4 E E5addEEsuE4
There are places to come from and pla- ces to go
EEEEEEEus4b
CHORUS #1:
E5 E5addEb Esus4 E
Night in the city looks pretty to me
E5 E5addEb F#m11/E
Night in the city look fine
E5 E5addEb Esus4 E
Music comes spilling out into the street
E5 E5addEb F#mF#m11
Colors go flashing in time
EEEEaddD
Take off, take off, take off those stay at home shoes
Break off, shake off, take off those stay at home blues
Stairway, stairway, down to the crowds in the street
They go their way, looking for faces to greet
But we run on laughing with noone to meet
CHORUS #2:
Night in the city looks pretty to me
Night in the city looks fine
Music comes spilling out into the street
Colors go waltzing in time
E5addD E5addD
