[Intro] 
|Am |FE D |G |Gsus | (4x)
[Verse 1] 
AmF When the daylight
CDm is falling down into the night
AmF And the sharks try
CE to cut a big piece out of life
 
AmF It feels alright to go out
CDm to catch an outrageous thrill
AmF But it's more like spinning wheels
CE of fortune which never stand still
 [Chorus] 
AmFG Big city, big city nights,
Gsus you keep me burning
AmFGGsus Big city, big city nights
 [Verse 2] 
AmF When the sunlight
CDm is rising up in my eyes
AmF And the long night
CE has left me back at somebody's side
 
AmF It feels alright for a long
CDm sweet minute like hours before
AmF But it's more like looking out
CE for something, can't find anymore
 [Chorus] 
AmFG Big city, big city nights,
Gsus you keep me burning
AmFGGsus Big city, big city nights, always yearning
 [Chorus] 
AmFG Big city, big city nights,
Gsus you keep me burning
AmFGGsus Big city, big city nights
 [Bridge] 
EGC There is no dream that you can't make true
Bm if you're looking for love
EGC But there's no girls burning the ice
Dsus2 (Am) away from my heart, maybe tonight
