NIGHT IN THE CITY- Joni Mitchell

TUNING: E B E G# B E, capo 3rd fret

E5addD E6 E5addD E E5addD E6 E

E5addD E6 E5addD E E5addD E6 E

Light up, light up, light up your lazy blue eyes

A/E E5addEb E A/E F#m11

Moon's up, night's up, taking the town by surprise

E5addD E6 EaddD E E5addD E6 E

Night time, night time, day left an hour ago

A/E E5addEb E A/E F#m11

City light time, must you get ready so slow

E5 E Esus4 E E5addEb Esus4 E

There are places to come from and pla- ces to go

E5 E Esus4 E E5addEb Esus4 E

CHORUS #1:

E5 E5addEb Esus4 E

Night in the city looks pretty to me

E5 E5addEb F#m11/E

Night in the city look fine

E5 E5addEb Esus4 E

Music comes spilling out into the street

E5 E5addEb F#m11/E F#m11

Colors go flashing in time

E5addD E6 E5addD E

Take off, take off, take off those stay at home shoes

Break off, shake off, take off those stay at home blues

Stairway, stairway, down to the crowds in the street

They go their way, looking for faces to greet

But we run on laughing with noone to meet

CHORUS #2:

Night in the city looks pretty to me

Night in the city looks fine

Music comes spilling out into the street

Colors go waltzing in time

E5addD E6 E5addD E
