Lovers In The City Chords

(ver. 1)
Tanita Tikaram
C         G                       Am
I'd never call this an unpleasant situation
G         Am               C
I'd never teach you how to lie
C         G               Am
But sometimes I have been walking numb
G                   Am           C
And I must catch myself before I cry
         G
Before I cry

C       G             Am
I never call anything ugly
G       F             C           G
I never call anything strange and alone
C       G       Am
I never want to take things lightly
G              F             C
Like they have never been my own

F                C                G
Oh, don't, now I haven't heard it yet
    F        C
Oh, don't, I haven't heard
F     Am                                 G
But I know them and they are inclined to see
         F      Am      G            Am
Just who is and isn't a lover in the city

C        G                  Am
I always thought I would be star bright
G        F                     C
I always thought you'd feel it too
C        G                Am
But sometimes I have been making conversation
G                F                C
And I must catch myself before I'm down
            G
I'm down on you

C       G                   Am
I never think they would be scaring me
G      F               C
Sacred couples in this cold
C            G             Am
They look so fine in their eagerness
G           F                    C
I wonder to myself just how they know

F                C                G
Oh, don't, now I haven't heard it yet
    F        C
Oh, don't, I haven't heard
F     Am                                 G
But I know them and they are inclined to see
         F      Am      G            Am
Just who is and isn't a lover in the city

F Am
I swear
                    G
I'm staking out the whole world
F Am
I swear
                    G
I'm staking out the whole world
                    F
I'm staking out the whole world

C       G          Am
I could never entertain you
G      F                 C
I'd be far too scared to try
C       G                 Am
But sometimes I have been talking dumb
G              F              C
And I forget myself and don't ask why

F                C                G
Oh, don't, now I haven't heard it yet
    F        C
Oh, don't, I haven't heard
F     Am                                 G
But I know them and they are inclined to see
         F      Am      G            Am
Just who is and isn't a lover in the city

(outro)
Am   C   Am   C
