[D]Standin at the airport lookin down the [Am]strip,
Am [C7]
She was cryin her eyes, she was bitin her lip
[C7]Seven-four-seven just left [G]from gate eleven
And there's [C7]no turnin round cos it's just [G]leavin the ground
Am [break]
And gettin higher (higher)
[D]Standin at the dock-side lookin out to [Am]sea
Am [C7]
When I saw her but she did not see me
There she [C7]stood with no hope because [G]she'd missed the boat
And as her [C7]dreams sailed away she headed [G]back for the day,
Am [break]
Back to the city (city)
[Gm] Night in the [Am]city, o-o-oh,

Gm Am Bb C [D]
Night in the city drivin you insane
