[Intro 1]
[D]
[Dm][D][Dm][F][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Like a [Dm]ti ger in the
jungle [D]when evening shadows fall
Like a
Mississippi gam[Dm]bler with
his [Bb]back [C]against the [D]wall
Like a nervous old tomcat,
I just don't know who I can trust
I'm wound up like a [Dm]cockspring
an[D]d I'm just about to bust
[G]Sometime when the cold wind blows
and the [D]rain comes pouring down
[G]I wish I could buy me a pair of w[D]ings
And [G]fly on out of this concrete hell
and [D]forget [A]about everything
But I'm [Dm]trapped in [D]the city,
[Dm]it's like I'm 40 [G]feet below
[Dm]Yes,[D] I'm t[G]rapp[Dm]ed in th[G]e city[D],
[Dm]I ain't got [G]no place[F] to go[G][D]
Over in [Dm]the evening [D]when the
smoggy sun [Dm]goes [D]down
Where the boogers an[Dm]d the sluggers an
[D]d the s[A]treet g[Bb]angs com[C]e around[D]
Where the ladies of [Dm]the evening [D]and
the midnight movers meet
While the wheel[Dm]ers and the dealers
fight their wall out [C]in the [D]street[Dm]
[G]Sometime when the cold wind blows
and the [D]rain comes pouring down
[G]I wish I could buy me a pair of w[D]ings
I'd [G]fly on out of this concrete hell
and [Dm]forget [A]about everything
But I'm [Dm]trapped [G]in the [D]city,
like [Dm]I'm 4[D]0 [G]feet below
[D]Yes, I'm[Dm] trapped in [G]the city[D],
I [F]ain't [G]got no [F]place [G]to go[D][Dm][D][Dm][D]
[Dm][D][Dm][G][D]
[G]I wish I could buy me a pair of w[D]ings
I'd [G]fly on out of this concrete hell
And for[A]get about everything
But I'm [Dm]trapped [G]in the [D]city
It's like [Dm]I'm 40 f[G]eet below
[D]Yes[G], I'm tra[Dm]pped in [G]the cit[D]y
I ain't [Dm]got no p[G]lace to [D]go
Well, [C]I'm [Dm]trapped [G]in the [Dm]city
It's like I'm 40 [G]feet below
[Dm]Yes, I'm trapped [G]in this [D]city
[Dm]I ai[F]n't go[G]t no place to go[D]
I [G]got no [F]place [G]to go[D][Dm]
[D][Dm][D]
