[Intro] Dm7 Am G Dm7 Am G Dm7 F C Dm7 [Verse 1]

Dm7
Somebody's screaming out

Somebody's knocking out

                             Am       G
Somebody's calling out, come hear it again

   Dm7
Street bells are ringing out

Young girls are singing out

                   Am      G
Boys are building up to be men

  Dm7
You've got the love

Then here comes the blood last

                            Am          G
The father, the mother, the sister, the chain

   Dm7
Sweet inspirations

Or a cold hearted nations baby

                                 F       C        Am   F
The young man, the brothers, the killers explain

[Chorus]

         C     G/B
Oh Jungleland

                           Am
They call you home sweet home

   F                C    G                           Am
You make me feel so sad,    to leave here all alone

    F                       C
But   there is a kid called Hope

      G/B                  Am
And he's holding out his hand

   F                      C   G/B
He   sees the Northern Lights

                      Dm7
Above this highrise land

Oh Jungleland Oh Jungleland Oh Jungleland [Verse 2]

Dm7
In the city, get out the city pretty quick

                           Am         G
I've got a prayer, I wanna sing it to you

     Dm7
Here little children forget the wild things

                         Am     G
But no one listens cause nobody cares

                    Dm7
When you've got the love drugs

And you've got the long nights

                           F          G       Dm7
You got the heartbeat that spirals to heaven

Here comes summer, here comes violence

                       F          C       Am F
Over your shoulder the soul boy explains

[Chorus]

         C     G/B
Oh Jungleland

                           Am
They call you home sweet home

    F                 C    G/B                          Am
You   make me feel so sad,     to leave here all alone

    F                       C
But   there is a kid called Hope

      G/B                  Am
And he's holding out his hand

   F                     C    G/B
He   sees the Northern Lights

                         Dm
Above the highrise land
