[Intro]
BbM7 Abadd9
[Verse 1]
BbM7 Abadd9
I walk the streets of the city,
BbM7 Eb F BbM7 Abadd9
People everywhere, none of them know my name.
BbM7 Abadd9
I see some things that ain't pretty,
BbM7 Eb F BbM7
Trouble in the air, somehow even I'm to blame.
[Chorus]
Eb GM7
These buildings so tall, where are they going
Eb F BbM7
Reaching clear up to the sky?
Eb GM7
Make me feel small, lost without knowing,
Eb F BbM7
Where I am going or why.
Abadd9 BbM7 Abadd9
Mmmmhh Yeah
[Verse]
BbM7 Abadd9
Tomorrow hangs like a promise,
BbM7 Eb F BbM7 Abadd9
Will it let me down like it did yesterday? Yeah
BbM7 Abadd9
Can count on nobody's promise,
BbM7 Eb F BbM7
People turn around without pleasure or dismay.
[Chorus]
Eb GM7
But that don't seem right, not if love's glowing
Eb F BbM7
Not if we are really alive
Eb GM7
The road to the light must be worth knowing
Eb F BbM7
If we are plannin' to survive.
Abadd9 BbM7 Abadd9
[Chorus]
Eb GM7
But that don't seem right, not if we're growing

Not if we are really alive

The road to the light must be worth knowing
Eb F BbM7
If we are plannin' to survive.
