G C
Big old cold and lonely city, once I've thought you pretty
G D
But now you're not pretty anymore
G C
Your tall buildings flashing neon signs, captured every dream of mine
D G
And I came knocking on your heartless door
I had visions of success, planned my wealth and happiness
Can't we safely say I've been a fool
Like a fool I thought you had a heart, you tore my thoughts and dreams apart
Oh, cold and lonely city, you've been cruel
Bridge:
D
I fell in love you watched me fall
G
I married in your City Hall
A7
Couldn't hold your city girl
D
That wanted your big city world
My best was just not good enough, I must admit you were too much
Concrete hearts are hard and cold as ice
Now I'm a going back where I should be to mom and dad cause they love me
You cold and lonely city it's been nice
