Mickey Gilley - City lights

^GA bright array of city lights, as ^Cfar as I can see. The '^DGreat White Way' shines through the night, on ^Clonely ^Dguys like ^Gme.^D The ^Gcabaret's and honky tonks, their ^Cflashing

The ^Dbroken heart can lose itself in the glow of city ^Glights^Gb. ^{C D}

^DLights that say forget her now, in a ^Gglass ^Dof sherry ^Gwine. ^DLights that offer other girls, for ^Gempty ^Dhearts like ^Gmine..^Cthey ^Gpaint a pretty picture, of a ^Cworld that's gay and bright. And it's ^Djust a mask for loneliness, behind those city ^Glights.

The ^Gworld was dark, God made the stars to ^Cbrighten up the night. But the ^DGod who put those stars above, I don't be^Clieve he ^Dmade those ^Glights^D. It's ^Gjust a place for me to cry, when ^Cthings don't

Just a ^Dplace to run away and hide, behind those city ^Glights^D. ^G

^DLights that say, forget her ^Am7love, in a ^Gdifferent atmosphere. ^DLights that lure are nothing but a ^Gmasquerade ^Dfor ^Gtears. ^GThey paint a pretty picture, but my ^Carms can't hold

And I ^Djust can't say that I love you to a street of city ^Glights.

No, I ^Djust can't say that I love you, to a street of city ^Glights.
