E/B       B             C#m          G#m  A
Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
E/B       B           C#m       A
Sometimes I feel like my only friend
       E/B     B            C#m    G#m A
Is the city I live in, the city of angels
E/B       B       C#m         A Emaj7
Lonely as I am, together we cry

I drive on her streets 'cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills 'cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and she kisses me windy
Well, I never worry, now that is a lie

Chorus:
      F#m                  E/B  B      F#m
Well, I don't ever want to feel like I did that day
F#m                    E/B   B      F#m
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way
F#m                  E/B  B      F#m
I don't ever want to feel like I did that day
F#m                    E/B   B       F#m      E/B
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way,
 B    C#m   G#m A E/B  B C#m A
yeah, yeah, yeah

It's hard to believe that there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe and I'm all alone
At least I have her love, the city she loves me
Lonely as I am, together we cry

Chorus:
      F#m                  E/B  B      F#m
Well, I don't ever want to feel like I did that day
F#m                    E/B   B      F#m
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way
F#m                  E/B  B      F#m
I don't ever want to feel like I did that day
F#m                    E/B   B       F#m      A
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way,
 Am    G     F
yeah, yeah, yeah

A  Am           G     F
oh no, no, no, yeah, yeah

A                 Am
under the bridge downtown
G            F
is where I drew some blood
A                 Am
under the bridge downtown
G            F
I could not get enough
A                 Am
under the bridge downtown
G        F
forgot about my love
A                 Am
under the bridge downtown
G          F
I gave my life away

A    Am    G     F
way, yeah, yeah, yeah
A  Am          G     F
oh no, no, no, no, yeah, yeah
A  Am         G    F   A Am
