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