Verse 1:
Am7Am7
Let me finish before I begin
A minorAm E minorEm
Speakers cornered by this London Djinn
E MajorE
Gift of the gab, with no sleep
A minorAm E minorEm
Speed bumps speed dating, all week
Am7Am7
She's got a rush hour glass figure
A minorAm E minorEm
And the city boys picking up the tab for her
E MajorE
She's a carnival flower
A minorAm E minorEm
And she's watered by the songs the streets sing her
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ahh
Chorus:
DmDm
Neon lights are the stars of the city
DmDm E MajorE
She's got teeth, red lips, red lights no pity
D MajorD
So I guess we'll do it her way
D MajorD E MajorE
So I'll guess we'll do it, her way
Verse 2:
Am7Am7
Her immigrant parents, night and day
A minorAm E minorEm
Poured their lives into this London clay
E MajorE
She's Nigerian, Spanish, a Turkish delight
A minorAm E minorEm
Jamaican wedding to an Israelite
Am7Am7
She a cockney trouble and strife
A minorAm E minorEm
She's got muscles and cockles and special fried rice
E MajorE
If she's past the prime and her life
A minorAm E minorEm
Why do they still check her out from the corner of their eyes?
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ahh

So I guess we'll do it her way

Neon lights are the stars of the city

Constellations of her rough romantic pity

So I guess we'll do it her way
D MajorD E MajorE
So I guess we'll do it, her way
