Em7 A6
I want to tell you a story
Em7 B7
Bout a city by the sea
Em7 A9+6
I thought it was heaven on earth
C7 F#/D Em7
City’s got a hold on me
Em7 B7
A6 Em7
I met a woman
A6 Em7
She lived high on a hill
A6 Em7
Her love was narcotic
C7 B7
It was like taking a pill
Em7 A6
I lost that woman
Em7 B7
Or maybe she lost me
Em7 A9+6
now the city’s hell on earth
C7 F#/D Em7
the city by the sea
Em7 B7
A6 Em7
Some are searching for money
A6 Em7
Some are searching for fame
A6 Em7
Some don’t know what they’re searching for
C7 B7
They think they’re playing a game
Em7 A6
One thing I know for certain
Em7 B7
One thing I guarantee
Em7 A9+6
the city is both heaven and hell
C7 F#/D Em7
and when you come here then you’ll see
Em7 B7
A6 Em7
Some are searching for pleasure
A6 Em7
Some are searching for love
A6 Em7
Some can’t say what they’re searching for
C7 B7
When push comes to shove
Em7 A6
So: that’s my story
Em7 B7
Bout a city by the sea
Em7 A9+6
Now I’ve learned it’s not heaven or hell
C7 F#/D Em7
But the city’s got its hooks in me
Em6
