Verse 1:

Bm                             C
    This whole city’s black and white

                     Em
Tell me what is your color.

            Am     G6      Dsus2/F#
'Cause it'd be the same as mine.

Bm                              C
    Faded greens and blue street lights,

                   Em
There’s a red fire burning

         Am     G6     Dsus2/F#
From the sea up to the sky.

Chorus 1:  

                       C
'Cause I don’t want to wait until tomorrow

                  Em
Tell you how I'll feel the rest of my life

                  C                                G5    D
You don’t want to waste another minute when you realize

                C
Walking on the dark side of the evening

             Em   
Maybe it was you that opened my eyes

               C
Burning like a fire on the water

Won’t you just stay?

Verse 2:  (See Verse 1)

I’m on the top stair looking down
If you're climbing up to me
It’s where the whole world wants to be found
Golden rings and coffee brown
There’s white flag waving
Where my heart is on the ground.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chorus:  (See Chorus 1)

'Cause I don’t want to wait until tomorrow
Tell you how I’ll feel the rest of my life
You don’t want a waste another minute when you realize
Walking on the dark side of the evening
Maybe it was you that opened my eyes
Burning like a fire on the water
In the city of black and white.

Bridge:  

               C
Won’t you just stay now, Where the light goes

        Dadd2/4
Under a dark street, No one else knows

        Am
Take my hand

           G5                 Dsus2/F#
I'll carry you, you can carry me.
