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