G A bright array of city lights C As far as I can see D7 The great white way shines through the night G On lonely guys like me
The cabaret's and honky tonks
C Their flashing signs invite D7 A broken heart to lose itself G In the glow of city lights D7 Lights that say forget her name G In a glass of sherry wine D7 Lights that offer other girls G For empty hearts like mine
They paint a pretty picture
C Of a world that's gay and bright D7 And it's just a mask for loneliness G Behind those city lights
The world was dark and God made stars
C To brighten up the night D7 But God would put the stars above G I don't believe made those lights
It's just a place for men to cry
C When things don't turn out right D7 Just a place to run away and hide G Behind those city lights D7 Lights that say forget her love G In a different atmosphere D7 Lights that lure are nothing but G A masquerade for tears
They paint a pretty picture
C But my arms can’t hold them tight D7 And I just can't say I love you G To a street of city lights
