  Eb7
  Bright lights, big city
  All night, are you ready
  Cat Fight, what a pity
  Sex hype, nitty gritty

  F#7                                 E7 F7 F#7
  You are the one that I'm pointing to,
  Come here and give me some

  Eb7
  Mouse trap, on your body
  Groupies, in the lobby
  Cold Cash, In your pocket
  Cool Vibes, in your socket
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/u/umphreys_mcgee/bright_lights_crd.html ]
  F#7                                  E7 F7 F#7
  Open the lock to my bedroom door
  See what its all about

  Eb7
  Long drives on the freeway
  Cop Lights in your driveway
  Long rides on the airway
  All night on the runway

Then the bridge goes Eb > B 2 times, use palm muting on the repeated bass notes,
then Bb, then repeat that 3 times, then back to the main riff

  Long drives on the freeway
  Cop Lights in your driveway
  Long rides on the airway
  All night on the runway

  This is the chance i've been waiting for
  Better get out of my way

  Cab ride to the whiskey
  Blue ice make you frisky
  Strobe light on your body
  All night eatin sushi

  Someday you'll know ill be wantin more
  More than the streets can put out

  Bright lights, Big City
  All night, are you ready
  Cat Fight, what a pity
  Sex hype, nitty gritty

  You've got the strut Ive been dreamin about
  Cuttin the crowd like some bread
