I Am The City

	  		INTRO: A  E/A  D/A  D/A   A   A 
 
VERSE: (A) Coming through a cloud you're looking (D) at me from above 
And I'm a revelation spreading out (A) before your eyes 
And you find me beautiful and (D) irresistible 
A giant creature that forever seems to (A) grow in size 
(E) And you feel a strange attraction oohh  (D) oohh 
The air is vibrant and (A) electrified 
(E) Welcome to me here I am, my arms are open (A) wide 
 
VERSE: Somewhere in the middle of the neverending noise 
There is a constant steady rhythm of a heart that beats 
And a million voices blend into a single voice 
And you can hear it in the clamour of the crowded streets 
People come and take their chances 
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose a lot 
Come make your own contribution to this melting pot 
        (A) I'm the street you walk (E/A) 
The language you talk (D/A) 
I am the city 
(A) skyline is (E/A)is me and the (D/A) energy 
I am the city 
(A)The famous (A/G#) hotels and the cocktail bars  (G) 
And the funny smells  (F#m) 
And the turmoil, the cars (A) the people (D) 
The (F#m) air (E) that you're (C#m) breathing is (D) me 
Yes I am the city (Dm) you let me be (A)
 
VERSE: People feed me with their lives I am a hungry soul 
And they all worship me and pay their homage day and night 
Every day I knew a lot of tired shopping feet 
But come the night they will be dancing in the neon light 
Dazzled by the crazy magic 
They're grabbing pieces of the fatted calf 
And in the wind if you listen hard you'll hear me laugh
