 E          C      D     
  I'm going out to-night,
 E                     C     D     
  I don't know if I'll be al-right.
 E                   C    D  
  Everyone, wants to hurt me,
 E                               C  D  
  There's too much danger in the ci-ty.
 
 E          C       D     
  I have to carry a knife,
 E                    C              D    
  Because people keep threatening my life.
 E                       C     D    
  I can't dress just the way I want,
 E                        C        D     
  I'm being chased by The National Front.

  Concrete jungle; the animals are after me.
 F         Em         C                 D       
  Concrete jungle; it ain't safe on the streets.

  I won't fight for a cause,

  Don't want to change the law.
 E                     C          D    
  Leave me alone, just leave me a-lone,
 E                  C     D   
  I want to get out on my own.
 
 E            C       D     
  I'm walking home to-night,
 E                          C       D      
  I only walk where there's lots of lights.
 E                      C    D    
  In the alleys and the door-ways,
 E                             C       D    
  Some throw a bottle straight at your face.
