City Lights chords by The White Stripes

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:

Chord diagramA augmentedA
I want to grab a stranger’s hand and
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Hold it as tightly as I can and
Chord diagramA augmentedA
I will tell by their reaction if
Chord diagramA augmentedA
They’re like me or if I am crazy
Chord diagramA augmentedA
When the lights of the city hit my
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Eyes on the plane looking out the window
Chord diagramA augmentedA
I am consumed by a comforting notion
Chord diagramA augmentedA
That you are there and
Chord diagramA augmentedA
I am welcome
Chord diagramA augmentedA
If our miles have added up to
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Chord diagramA augmentedA giant pile of distance that we
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Cannot reach past, climb, or conquer
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Will you dig a
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Tunnel to me?
Interlude:
Chord diagramA augmentedA

Verse 2:
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Every move suspends an action
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Any attempt to engage will push away
Chord diagramA augmentedA
What you want becomes a magnet
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Opposing poles
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Never meeting
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Can you combine a friend and mother?
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Can you blend a dad and brother?
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Must we have to pick one or the other?
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Will we know this or always wonder?
Chord diagramA augmentedA
(Always wonder)
Chord diagramA augmentedA
You can tell what you’ve done to me
Chord diagramA augmentedA
To be seen in hell from your place in a tree
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Always helping
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Ever loving
Chord diagramA augmentedA
But will you always
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Be above me
Interlude:
Chord diagramA augmentedA

Verse 3:
Chord diagramA augmentedA
I won’t ignore nor will not forget
Chord diagramA augmentedA
The kindness that’s been done to me
Chord diagramA augmentedA
You are the surest and safest bet that
Chord diagramA augmentedA
I could ask for
Chord diagramA augmentedA
So I’m asking
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Soon we will be side by side the
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Plane will land and the wings will glide
Chord diagramA augmentedA
The bags in hand and
Chord diagramA augmentedA
The car will drive
Chord diagramA augmentedA
Into you
Chord diagramA augmentedA
I will arrive
Chord diagramA augmentedA
By your side
Chord diagramA augmentedA
By your side
