Harlem Lyrics & Tabs by The Stray Birds
Harlem
guitar chords lyrics
My city's had a lot of trouble sleepin'
she's up all night
breakin' through the windows and the ceilin's
scrapin' stars from the sky
and my city's made a habit out of cryin'
all through the night
they say she likes the harmony of sirens
and the time of the traffic light
but I love my city
my sleepless city
I'll do her sleepin' for free
yeah, I love my city
my sleepless city
yeah, she can do my cryin' for me
my city's pickin' fights across the water
with the worn out moon
and I watch her from honey colored corner
a quiet room
where I hung a little picture of my darlin'
black and white
but it's been fadin' on yellow wall in Harlem
since she left that night
but I love my city
my sleepless city
I'll do her sleepin' for free
yeah, I love my city
my sleepless city
yeah, she can do my cryin' for me
Well, I love my city
my sleepless city
I'll do her sleepin' for free
yeah, I love my city
my sleepless city
yeah, she can do my cryin' for me
yeah, she can do my cryin' for me
yeah, she can do my cryin' for me
