Intro
D#m C# B
[Verse 1]
D#m C# B
This city never sleeps
D#m C# B
I hear the people walk by when it's late
D#m C# B
Sirens bleed through my window sill, I can't close my eyes
D#m C# B
Don't control what I'm into
D#m C# B
This tower is alive
D#m C# B
The lights that blind keep me awake
D#m C# B
With my hood up and lace untied, sleep fills my mind
D#m C# B
Don't control what I'm into
[Hook]
C* D* Em* F#
London calls me a stranger, a traveller
C* D* F#
This is now my home, my home
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, I'm burning on the back streets
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, stuck here sitting in the back seat,
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, and I'm blazing on the street
C*
And what I do isn't up to you,
D*
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
[Verse 2]
D#m C# B
The pavement is my friend
D#m C# B
It will take me where I need to go
D#m C# B
I find it trips me up, and puts me down
D#m C# B
This is not what I’m used to
D#m C# B
The shop across the road
D#m C# B
Fulfills my needs and gives me company, when I need it
D#m C# B
Voices speak through my walls, I don’t think I’m gonna make it
D#m C# B
Past tomorrow
[Hook]
C* D* Em* F#
London calls me a stranger, a traveller
C* D* F#
This is now my home, my home
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, I'm burning on the back streets
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, stuck here sitting in the back seat,
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, and I'm blazing on the street
C*
And what I do isn't up to you,
D*
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
[Bridge]
C* D*
And my lungs hurt, And my ears bled,
Em* F#
With the sound of the city life, echoed in my head
C* D*
Do I need this, to keep me alive
F#
The traffic stops and starts but I need to move along
[Verse 3]
D#m
I’m from a city where the rain won’t cease
C# B
Pollution in the air matches that on the street
D#m
The black smoke gets you head into a muddle, like
C# B
Walking into elephant syringes in the puddle, like
D#m
I was a country boy when I moved out
C# B
Grew up too fast for my family to find out
D#m
Now I try to stop my music running into nosedives
C# B
Can’t resort to arrogance with white lies
D#m
This city won’t erase me
C# B
But I can’t help to see how this dark city changed me
D#m
It’s all the same scene, music is my life
C# B
But I try to fight whatever I need to hide from
D#m
North, South, East, West,
C# B
London’s my home now, knees weak, but we never slow down
D#m
Now I start to do my music properly
C# B
And stay from all the negative shit that will follow me
[Hook]
C* D* Em* F#
London calls me a stranger, a traveller
C* D* F#
This is now my home, my home
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, I'm burning on the back streets
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, stuck here sitting in the back seat,
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, and I'm blazing on the street
C*
And what I do isn't up to you,
D*
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
[Outro]
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, I'm burning on the back streets
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, stuck here sitting in the back seat,
D#m C# B
Oh, oh, and I'm blazing on the street
C*
And what I do isn't up to you,
D* D#m
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
