My house
        Bmaj7  Dmaj7  Emaj7

"City life, get you in the city for good"

       Bmaj7  Dmaj7  Emaj7
Such a lovely building

Microwave oven and a hot tub to chill in
Emaj7
You could call me up if you got something to say
           Bmaj7       Dmaj7  Emaj7
Well, how can I have something to say?
