[F#] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Amazing grace filled guiding light, _ _ _ [E] _ _
see her [E] safely home [F#] tonight. _
[B] _ _ _ East end squares glow bright and loud, _ _ _ [E] _ since I lived there [F#] with the twilight bride. _
_ [E] _ _ The west end [B] lights have lost [F#] their wow, [E] _ trail _ my _ thoughts,
showing my grave in the [G#m] heart of her.
[B] _ _
_ [G#m] _ _ _ _ [E] _ I'm half _ lost, [C#m] wondering if I [B] should follow [G#m] _ _ [C#] or let it [F#] go.
_ [B] _ _ _
Sweet slight arresting bright light smile,
[D#] _ _ [E] _ fuels back the electric city [F#] style.
_ [B] _ _ _
Refuse me in the mystery, _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ what the world [B] could mean [F#] to me.
[E] _ _ _
She's an island [E] girl I'm lost [D#m] at sea.
[B] _ _ When I was young the radio _ _ [E] played just for me.
[Em] It [F#] saved me, _ [B] _ _ and I don't want anyone _ who wants me, _ [Em] _ baby.
[F#] _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ Chilling out the darkness, _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
turning on [G#] the dawn.
[C#] _ _ _
If [B] life is like the songs that [F#] surf across the curved horizon,
then forget her and be [B] gone. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ So _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I checked my map for tiny _ signs, [D#m] _ _ _
where she's [F#] at, where she's been.
_ [B] _ _ But it's made from scraps of stupid _ [D#m] lines, [E] _ _ _
[G#] songs and scenes and magazines. _ _
[E] _ _ It doesn't [F#] tell me what it [G#] means.
_ [E] Take _ [C#m]
her _ [E] face out of the sky for the [B] day for _ me.
_ _ [G#m] _
_ _ [E] _ _ I'm half _ crazed, wondering [A#] if I should [G#m] follow _ _ [C#] or let _ [F#] it go.
[B] Can't get straight, _ _ _ [G#m] lost my way. _ _
_ I'm overcome [C#m] by her spell.
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ When I was young [Bm] the radio _ _ [E] played just for me.
It [Em] saved [F#] me, [B] _ _
and I don't want anyone _ [E] who wants me, _ [Em] _
baby.
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ Chilling out the darkness, _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ turning [C#] on the dawn. _
_ _ [B] If life was like the [G#m] songs [F#] I'd surf [E] into the wings,
and in a splash [F#] of silver [B] she'd be gone. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ This was [D#m] the way _ I _ [E] _ _
_ _ [F#] always dreamed it would [B] be.
_ The way [D#m] that it _
_ _ _ [E] is when you [Em] are holding [C#] me.
_ [G] I never [F#] had a love of my own. _
[E] Maybe [F#] that's why I'm real all alone.
_ _ [B] _ I can hear _ music.
_ [C#m] _
I [F#] can hear _ music. _
[B] _ _ The sound of the city, _ baby, [C#m] _ seems [N] to disappear.
_ _ I [B] haven't _ _
