Capo: 5
Credit to niuguitarman for the chords to the original, I've merely transposed it
and added in the extra bits/key changes from Cocker's version. You could play it
as Am with a capo on the 5th fret if you so wished, transpose it 5 steps down
using controls if applicable.
[Intro]
Dm | A# (repeat)
[verse 1:]
Dm Hot town, Dm/Csummer in the city; G/Bback of my neck gettingA# dirty and Agritty
Dm Been down, Dm/Cisn't it a pity; G/Bdoesn't seem to be aA# shadow in the Acity
A All around, pA7eople looking half dead
DmWalking on the sidewalk, Dhotter than a match head
[chorus:]
G But at night it's a Cdifferent world
G Go out and Cfind a girl
G Come-on come-on and dCance all night
G Despite the heat it'll Cbe alright
And Embabe, don't you Aknow it's a pity
That the Emdays can't Abe like the nights
In the Emsummer, in the Acity
In the Emsummer, in the Acity

Dm | A# (repeat)
[verse 2:]
Cool town, evening in the city; Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty; Gonna look in every corner of the city
Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop
