[Verse 1]
[C]Grim-faced and an[G]d forbidding
[C]Their faces closed tight
[F]An angular mass of New Yorkers
[C]Pacing in rhythm
Race the oncoming night
They [F]chase through the streets
of Manhattan
[C]Head-first humanity
humanity
Pause at [Am]a light
Then [F]flow through the streets of the city

[Verse 2]
They seem [Db]oblivious
To a [C]soft spring rain
Like an English [Db]rain

[Verse 5]
[C]Wide-angle watcher
watcher
On life's ancient tales
[F]Steeped in the history of London
[C]Green and Grey washes
In a wispy white veil
[Am]Mist[F] in the streets of
[Bb]Westminster
[C]Wistful and weathered
The pride still prevails
[Am]Alive [F]in the streets of the city
