[Intro]

[Verse]
         E                                           F#
Well the midnight's on Manhattan 11th street and all alone 
         A                                                E     B7
Countin' cracks beneath my feat 'cause my head is hanging low 
        E                                               F#
And the street lights all down b shining on the falling rain 
        A                                                 E    B7
Shadows dance across the street wind seems to whisper her name 

[Chorus]
            C#m           B                  A
But in this tired old town another sleepless night 
        F#m               A                     E     B7   
Keep me wandering around down on the lower east side


[Solo]
E - F#m - A - E B7  x2


[Verse]
         E                                       F#
So lay a star up in heaven shining down from up above 
         A                                         E     B7
And the city is unforgiving when you got nobody to love 


[Chorus]
        C#m                     B                           A
But its more and more these days, I find I need a place to hide 
        F#m                         A                     E     B7
And its easy to get away when your down on the lower east side
        F#m                         A                      E     
Yeah its easy to get away when your down on the lower east side
