"City Lights" - Eddie Noack (originally by Ray Price)
Released 1958
[Intro]
D7 G
[Verse]
G C The bright array of city lights as far as I can see D7 G The great white way shines through the night for lonely guys like me C The cabarets and honky-tonks, their flashing signs invite D7 G Cadd9 G A broken heart to lose itself in the glow of city lights
[Chorus 1]
D7 G Lights that say, "Forget her name" in a glass of cherry wine D7 G Lights that offer other girls for empty hearts like mine G C They paint a pretty picture of a world that's gay and bright D7 G But it's just a mask for loneliness behind those city lights
[Interlude]
D7 G
[Chorus 2]
D7 G Lights that say "Forget her love" in a different atmosphere D7 G Lights that lure are nothing but a masquerade for tears C They paint a pretty picture, but my arms can't hold them tight D7 G Cadd9 G And I just can't say "I love you" to a street of city lights
