[Verse 1]
Em7               Dsus2      Cadd9
   This city never     sleeps
Em7                                        Dsus2 Cadd9
   I hear the people walk by when it's late
Em7                               Dsus2
Sirens bleed through my windowsill
        Cadd9
I can't close my eyes
Em7                    Dsus2 Cadd9
Don't control what I'm into
Em7                   Dsus2 Cadd9
   And this tower is alive 
Em7                                   Dsus2 Cadd9
   The lights that blind keep me awake
Em7
Hood up and lace untied
Dsus2      Cadd9
     Sleep fills my mind
Em7                    Dsus2 Cadd9
Can't control what I'm into

[Pre-Chorus]
C            Dadd11
 London calls      me a stranger,
Em7           G
   a traveller
C          Dadd11        Em7
 This is now     my home,   my home
Wow!

[Chorus]
Em7  Bm
Oh-oh
C                   G
 I'm burning on the back street
Em7  Bm
Oh-oh
     C                    G       G/F#
Stuck here sitting in the backseat
Em7  Bm
Oh-oh
       C           G
I'm blazing on the street
Em7               Bm
What I do isn't up  to you
       C
If the city never sleeps,
     G          G/F# Em7
then that makes two

[Verse 2]
Em7                  Dsus2      Cadd9
   The pavement is my     friend
Em7                                  Dsus2 Cadd9
   It will take me where I need to go
Em7
I  find it trips me up
Dsus2    Cadd9
     And puts me down
Em7                  Dsus2  Cadd9
This is not what I'm used to
Em7                          Dsus2 Cadd9
   And the shop across the road   
Em7                               Dsus2     Cadd9
   Fills my needs and gives me company when I    need it
Em7
Voices speak through my walls
Dsus2                  Cadd9
     I don't think I'm gonna make it
Em7          Dsus2 Cadd9
Past tomorrow

[Pre-Chorus]
C            Dadd11
 London calls      me a stranger,
Em7           G
   a traveller
C           Dadd11        Em7
 This is now      my home,   my home
Wow!

[Chorus]
Em7  Bm
Oh-oh
C                   G
 I'm burning on the back street
Em7  Bm
Oh-oh
     C                    G       G/F#
Stuck here sitting in the backseat
Em7  Bm
Oh-oh
       C           G
I'm blazing on the street
Em7               Bm
What I do isn't up  to you
       C
If the city never sleeps,
     G          G/F#
then that makes two

[Bridge]
Em7                  G
   And my lungs hurt, and my ears bled
Am                               C                 Em7
  With the sound of the city life echoed in my head
              G
Do I need this to keep me alive?
    C
The traffic stops and starts,
      D
but I need to move along

[Pre-Chorus]
C            Dadd11             Em7
 London calls      me a stranger
C           Dadd11        G
 This is not      my home, home,
Wow!

[Chorus]
Em7  Bm
Oh-oh
C                   G
 I'm burning on the back street
Em7  Bm
Oh-oh
     C                    G       G/F#
Stuck here sitting in the backseat
Em7  Bm
Oh-oh
       C           G
I'm blazing on the street
Em7               Bm
What I do isn't up  to you
       C
If the city never sleeps,
then that makes two
