Intro: 0:00 0:14
Am | F | G | G  - x3
Am | F | G | G:

Verse 1: 0:27
  G       Am      F
When the daylight
            C             Dm
Is falling down into the night
         Am        F
And the sharks try
          C
To cut a big
              E
Piece out of life,
0:41
         Am            F
It feels alright to go out
            C
To catch an
              Dm
Outrageous thrill.
          Am                  F
But it's more like spinning wheels
           C
Of fortune
                    E  | E
Which never stand still.

Chorus: 0:57
Am         F
  Big city,
          G
Big city nights,
G
  You keep me burning.

Am         F
  Big city,
          G    | G
Big city nights.

Verse 2: 1:11
  G       Am      F
When the sunlight
          C        Dm
Is rising up in my eyes
         Am        F
And the long night
             C
Has left me back
               E
At somebody's side,
1:25
         Am             F
It feels alright for a long,
             C
Sweet minute,
              Dm
Like hours before.
          Am               F
But it's more like looking out
              C
For something,
               E  | E
Can't find anymore.

Chorus: 1:41
Am         F
  Big city,
          G
Big city nights,
G
  You keep me burning.

Big city nights.

Always yearning.

          G    | G | G
Big city nights.

Bridge: 2:11
E               G
  There is no dream
                      C
That you can't make true,
                       B
If you're looking for love.
2:18
E                 G
  But there's no girls
            C
Burning the ice
              D   | D
Away from my heart,
         Am ->
Maybe tonight.
