I live in a city people wanna move into

G                                D                                   C

I do all the things that people say they wanna do

G                                                            D                                        C

But when the songs that we write don’t shake the college student loans

G                           D                               C

Everybody in town wants to move back home

Dark in the city

Dark, Dark in the city

                             C

Yeah but there’s a light on the inside

Light on the inside

Dark in the city

Dark, Dark in the city

                             C

All the shops on my street only sell expensive things

G                                   D                      C

We have everything that nobody really needs

G                                        D                                  C

But if you go a little further, little further down the road

G                                                              D                               C

The families live on foodstamps, and the kids wear worn out clothes

Dark in the city

Dark, Dark in the city

                             C

Yeah but there’s a light on the inside

Everybody knows her from the corner down the street

G                                                D                             C

Cause she asks for money from everybody that she meets

G                                             D                                      C

But no one knows the demons putting words inside her mouth

G                                             D                               C

She used to be a streetlamp, now her light is going out.
