A D Coming through a cloud you're looking at me from above A And I'm a revelation spreading out before your eyes D And you find me beautiful and irresistible A A giant creature that forever seems to grow in size E D And you feel a strange attraction oohh oohh A The air is vibrant and electrified E A Welcome to me here I am, my arms are open wide Somewhere in the middle of the never-ending noise There is a constant steady rhythm of a heart that beats And a million voices blend into a single voice And you can hear it in the clamour of the crowded streets People come and take their chances Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose a lot Come, make your own contribution to this melting pot Chorus: A E/A I'm the street you walk D/A The language you talk I am the city A E/A The skyline is is me D/A And the energy I am the city A E/G# G The famous hotels and the cocktail bars F#m A And the funny smells and the turmoil of cars D F#m E C#m D And the people the air that your breathing is me Dm A Yes I am the city you let me be People feed me with their lives, I am a hungry soul And they all worship me and pay their homage day and night Every day I knew a lot of tired shopping feet But come the night they will be dancing in the neon light Dazzled by the crazy magic They're grabbing pieces of the fatted calf And in the wind, if you listen hard you'll hear me laugh Chorus D Dm A I am the city You let me be D I am the city The famous hotels and the cocktail bars And the funny smells and the turmoil of cars And the people the air that you breath (Coming through the cloud) Your looking at me from above Im a revelation spreading out before your eyes The street that you walk,the language you talk I am the city,yea i am the city you let me be me And you find me beautiful and irresistable A giant creature that seems to forever grow in size (the skyline is me) And the energy I am the city You let me be me Somewhere in the middle of the never ending noise There is a pulse a steady rhythm of a heart that beats I am the street you walk the language you talk I am the city,yea i am the city you let me be me And a million voices blend into a single voice And you can hear it in the clamour of the crowded streets I am the city You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C#m  D  Dm  E  F#m  G  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
