Intro
A F#m E D
[Verse 1]
A
Every single day is a ballet in the streets
F#m
and everyone's a dancer light and lively on their feet
E D
twinkle toes all stand in rows where roads and sidewalks meet and then they leap,
A
how they leap!
A
To symphonies of crashes all brash and harsh and loud, they make the
F#m
the city seems a place where sleeping simply ain't allowed,
E
And when the day is over and those heads are hanging down,
E
eyelids heavy all around, dreams falling from the clouds,
D A
you hear a most peaceful and beautiful sound
Bm F#m
as the city heaves a sigh
C# D
hear it start to softly sing itself that concrete lullaby,
A E A
and it's: sleep little city do not cry.
[Bridge]
A Bm C# F#m D A E A
[Verse 2]
A
Glass and concrete canyons, never abandoned
F#m
all gleaming with the lights of those who live the light demanding
E D
when the electric lights drive off the night they are still standing strong
A
weary and strong
A
and now feet pound on the ground downtown and rhythm of that step
F#m
is the living city's heartbeat and the breath inside its heaving chest
E
when the sun again sinks below buildings in the west,
E
we cease our work and seek our peace
D A
our solemn souls to rest, in the comforting cradle of the city's sooted breast.
Bm F#m
And feel the city heave a sigh,
C# F#m
hear it start to softly sing itself that concrete lullaby,
A E A
and it's sweet little city do not cry.
[Bridge and finish]
