            Em
Don't look down
                            Am   G
They're making sorta crazy sounds

                Am
Don't look down no
Don't know who else came to kneel
               G
On this empty battlefield
            Am                                 Em
But when I hear that crazy sound I don't look down
                             Am
From Central Park to shanty town
                         Em
I always hear that crazy sound
                        Am
From New York to shanty town
                         G
There's always something else

Don't look down, no
I went this morning to the cemetery
To see old Rudy Valentino buried
Lipstick traces on his name
He never looked down
Because they were making crazy sounds
From Central Park to shanty town
He always heard that crazy sound
There's always something else

Don't look down, no
When I see you standing there
I can't see the clothes you wear
I just hear that crazy sound
And I can't look down
I've always heard that crazy sound
From New York to shanty town
There's always something else

Don't look down, no
Don't look down
Don't look, don't look down
No I won't be bored I won't be there
Look at life it s no piece of cake
When I hear that crazy sound
I don't look down
From Central Park to shanty town
I always hear that crazy sound
From New York to shanty town
There's always something else

Don't look down, no
Don't look down
Don't look, don't look down
