Well, it' s a big big city and it' s always the same
@G#m7
Can never be too pretty, tell me your name
Gm7 F#m7 @B7
Is it out of line if I was to be bold and say "Would you be mine"?
E
Because I may be a beggar and you may be the queen
@G#m7
And though I may be on a downer I' m still ready to dream
Gm7 F#m7 @B7
Though it' s 3 o' clock, the time is just the time it takes for you to talk
E @G#m7
So if you' re lonely, why' d you say you' re not lonely
Gm7 F#m7
Oh, you' re a silly girl, I know I heard it so
@B7
It' s just like you to come and go
E @G#m7
And know me, no you don' t even know me
Gm7 F#m7
You' re so sweet to try, oh my, you caught my eye
@B7
A girl like you' s just irresistible
E
Well, it' s a big big city and the lights are all out
@G#m7
But it' s as much as I can do you know to figure you out
Gm7 F#m7
And I must confess, my heart' s all broken pieces
@B7
And my head' s a mess
E
And it' s 4 in the morning, and I' m walking along
@G#m7
Beside the ghost of every drinker here who has ever done wrong
Gm7 F#m7
And it' s you, woo hoo
@B7
That' s got me going crazy for the things you do
E @G#m7
So if you' re crazy I don' t care, you amaze me
Gm7 F#m7
But you' re a stupid girl, oh me, oh my, you talk
@B7
I die, you smile, you laugh, I cry
E @G#m7
And only, a girl like you could be lonely
Gm7 F#m7
And it' s a crying shame, if you would think the same
@B7
A boy like me' s just irresistible
