[G] [A]
[C] [G]
[C] Look here baby, [G] don't treat me [C] like a child
I ain't a kid, [Em] I'm just [F] young [G] and wild
[C] I came to your big city crown
[Em]
[F] You [A] said I cramp your [F#m] style, told me not [A] to hang around
[C] I got the big city blues, [G] I'm blue [C] as I can be
[G]
[C] Walking all alone [G] down a crowded [C] avenue
[Em] [C]
The only one I know in [Em] this whole city [G] is you
[C] Nobody's to see me, everyone just [Em] passes [A] me by
All I [F] wanna do [F#m] is hang my head and cry
I [C] got the big city blues, [G] I'm blue as [Gm] I can be
[C] [G] Well I've been wearing out my [C] shoes and singing the blues
[F] I'm trying to get my [C] train fare home
[F]
If there's one [C] single lesson [A] I've [F#] learned
That this is way too [G] far to roam
[C] Oh baby, [G] you'll miss me [C] when I'm gone
[D#]
[C] Then you'll be sorry [Em] you let me [G] leave alone
[C] [G] I don't think that [C] [E]
[F] nobody can [F#m] love you quite the way I [C] can
I've got the big city [G] blues, I'm blue as [C] I can be
I'll hit it now, [A] [C]
[A] [F] [C] [F]
[C] [G] [E]
[G] [D] [C]
[G] I will not hang around
If [Cm] you don't want me no more [C]
[G] [Cm] than I can [C] be
