#1.
G+G C majorC
A augmentedA bright array of city lights, as far as
I can see.
D MajorD
The 'Great White Way' shines through the night,
C majorC D MajorD G+G D MajorD
on lonely guys like me.
G+G C majorC
The cabaret's and honky tonks, their flashing
signs and lights.
D MajorD
The broken heart can lose itself in the glow
G+G GbGb C majorC D MajorD
of city lights.
#2.
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Lights that say forget her now, in a glass of
G+G
sherry wine.
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Lights that offer other girls, for empty hearts
G+G C majorC G+G
like mine..they paint a pretty picture, of a
C majorC
world that's gay and bright.
D MajorD
And it's just a mask for loneliness, behind
G+G
those city lights.

#3.
G+G C majorC
The world was dark, God made the stars to brighten
up the night.
D MajorD
But the God who put those stars above, I don't
C majorC D MajorD G+G D MajorD
believe he made those lights.
G+G C majorC
It's just a place for me to cry, when things don't
turn out right.
D MajorD
Just a place to run away and hide, behind those
G+G D MajorD G+G
city lights.
#4.
D MajorD Am7Am7 G+G
Lights that say, forget her love, in a different
atmosphere.
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Lights that lure are nothing but a masquerade for
G+G
tears.
G+G C majorC
They paint a pretty picture, but my arms can't hold
you tight.
D MajorD
And I just can't say that I love you to a street of
G+G
city lights.
