Intro: E  A7  Am  E 
 
E 
Sightseer in the middle of the night 
    F# 
I'm looking for action, something real tight 
A 
But can you make it when we turn on the lights 
       B 
Of the city 
 
E 
Street walker in the middle of the day 
F# 
Been up all night trying to earn your pay 
A 
Mama told you when you ran away 
         E   A7  Am   E          A7  Am  E 
It's not easy,        There's no pity 
       A7  Am  E 
In the city 
 
C#m               A 
I've been on this corner so long 
C#m                     A 
But it's no one's guess who's the next one  
B 
But before you know it, it'll be gone 
But I ain't complaining, don't get me wrong 
          E   A7  Am   E        A7  Am  E 
It's not easy,         In the city 
 
Street walker in the middle of your life 
Every day is like shooting dice 
You carry yourself like you carry a knife 
In the city 
 
Fast talker in the middle of the street 
Trying to hustle everyone that you meet 
Sooner or later everybody gets beat 
It's not easy There's no pity 
In the city
