Intro: B, Bsus4(11)
B
Every town has a secret heart that beats
Bsus4(11)
And every citizen an underground
B
I set my clock to a bootleg meter and
Bsus4(11)
broken hands spinning round and round
E
I'm on my way just like every day
C#m D#m(#5)
to get milk and kerosene
E
But my reflection in the butcher's window
F*
isn't me
E B/E B/E B/E E
I freeze

This is Chinatown
Bsus4(11)
A state of mind
B
This is Chinatown
Bsus4(11)
It's just a state of mind
Solo: B, Bsus4(11)
The sky was blue but I wouldn't know
I was counting cracks in the concrete
I'd memorized them from A to B
A choreography, a part of me
It's not the future, it's not the past
It's not now
The price will double if you try to look
them in the eye
Don't ask why
'cause this is Chinatown
a state of mind
This is Chinatown
a state of mind
F*, E
B, Bsus4(11)
In Chinatown...

Read my fortune in my MetroCard
E
You'll see nothing if you search too hard

Read my fortune in my MetroCard
