Downtown Chords

   
G            Bm
When you're alone

             C            D7
And life is making you lonely,

          G          C-D7
You can always go down-town

G                  Bm
When you've got worries,

          C             D7
All the noise and the hurry

          G       Bm      C-D7
Seems to help, I know, down-town



G                                 Em
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city

G                                 Em
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty

Bm
How can you lose?




C
The lights are much brighter there

           A
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares and go

Down-town, things'll be great when you're

Down-town, no finer place for sure,

Down-town, everything's waiting for you



G
Don't hang around

                 C         D7  
And let your problems surround you

           G      Bm     C-D
There are movie shows down-town

G
Maybe you know

              C        D7
Some little places to go to

             G     Bm     C-D
Where they never close down-town




G                               Em
Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossanova

G                                  Em
You'll be dancing with 'em, too, before the night is over

Em
Happy again



C
The lights are much brighter there

           A
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares and go

   G-Bm     C             D
Down-town where all the lights are bright,

Down-town, waiting for you tonight,

   G-Bm      C         D            G
Down-town, you're gonna be alright now



G                                  Em
And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you

G                                 Em
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to

Guide them along



C
So, maybe I'll see you there

A
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares and go

Down-town, things'll be great when you're

Down-town, everything's waiting for you

Downtown (downtown) downtown (downtown)
