Intro 1

A bright

Verse 1
array of city lights
C 
as far as I can see
D 
The grey white way shines
through the night
G 
for lonely guys like me
The cabarets and honky -tonks,
C 
their flashing signs and signs
D 
A broken heart to lose itself
G 
C 
in the glow of city lights
D 
Lights that say forget her name
G 
in a glass of sherry wine
D 
The lights that offer other girls
G 
D 
G 
are empty hearts like mine
Em 
D 
G 
They paint a pretty picture
C 
of a world that's gay and bright
D 
But it's just a mask for loneliness
G

behind those city lights
G 
D 
G 
The world was dark
God made stars
C 
to brighten up the night
G 
D 
But I  don't believe
that God above
G 
made those city lights
For it's just a place for men to hide
C 
When things don't turn out right
G 
C 
D 
Just a place to run away and cry
G 
Behind those city lights
D 
Lights that say forget her love
G 
C 
in a different atmosphere
D 
Lights that lure are nothing
G 
D 
G 
but a masquerade for tears
D 
G 
They paint a pretty picture
C 
of a world that's gay and bright
D 
But I just can't say I love you
G 
to a straight -up city life
