Verse 1:
[F]The neon haze [Bb]of city [F]lights,[Bb]The tribal sound of marching [F]feet,
[C]Cuts through the [Bb]gloom on cold dark [F]nights,
[C]The tired and [Bb]homeless roam the [F]streets,
Instrumental:C |Bb |F |F |
The sirens wail [Bb]the engines[F] roar,[Bb]A shadowed man just glances [F]around,
[C]A victim of [Bb]life`s mindless[F] toil,[C]Lies cold and [Bb]helpless on the [F]ground.
Chorus 1:
The window dummies silent stare,Bear [Bb]witness on the [F]night,
[C]If they could move,What [Bb]would it prove?,[F]To see them all take flight.
Verse 2:
The neon haze [Bb]of city [F]lights,[Bb]The tribal sound of marching [F]feet,
[C]Cuts through the [Bb]gloom on cold dark [F]nights,
[C]The tired and [Bb]homeless roam the [F]streets,
Instrumental:C |Bb |F |F |
The walls shout loud [Bb]with angry [F]words,[Bb]The people air their [F]views,
T[C]he poor can [Bb]scream but no-one [F]hears,[C]The concrete [Bb]jungle sings the [F]blues.
Chorus 2:
The window dummies silent stare,Bear [Bb]witness on the [F]night,
[C]If they could move,[Bb]What it would prove?,[F]To see them all take flight.
