      IN THE CITY
Eagles

[Intro]
A D   A E   A D   A E

[Verse I]
A D                   A     E
    Somewhere out on that horizon
A D                 A     E
    Out beyond the neon lights
A D                        A        E
    I know there must be something better
A D              E               A
    But there's nowhere else in sight

A D               A      E
    It's survival in the city
A D                     A      E
    When you live from day to day
A D                     A         E
    City streets don't have much pity, no
A D               E                    A     D
    When you're down that's where you stay, ohh

[Chorus I]
             E     D    A    D
    In the city, ahaa, ohh, ohh
                   E  D A
    In the city, ahaa

[Interlude]
A D   A E   A D   A E

[Verse II]
A D                 A      E
    I was born here in the city
A D                 A         E
    With my back against the wall
A D                              A     E
    Nothing grows and life ain't very pretty
A D                    E                 A
   No one's there to catch you when you fall

A D                   A     E
    Somewhere out on that horizon
A D                    A   E
    Far away from the neon sky
A D                        A        E
    I know there must be something better
A D               E            A     D
    And I can't stay another night, ohh

[Chorus II]
             E     D    A    D
    In the city, ahaa, ohh, ohh
             E     D  A D
    In the city, ahaa
             E D A D
    In the city
             E D A D
    In the city
             E     D  A D
    In the city, ahaa
