Intro: D C G Bb D C G Bb D/F# Gmaj7 D G/B A G/B D A G/B
D G/B D A
I've seen the lights go out on Broadway
Bm G A
I saw the Empire State laid low.
F#m7 Bm
And life went on beyond the Palisades,
B7sus2 D
They all bought Cadillacs
A G
And left there long ago.
D G/B D A
They held a concert out in Brooklyn
Bm G A--Asus4-A
To watch the Island bridges blow.
D/F# G
They turned our power down
D G/B
And drove us underground
A G/B D
But we went right on with the show
INTERLUDE x2: D D A Asus4 A
D G/D D
I've seen the lights go out on Broadway
Bm G A Asus4 A
I saw the ruins at my feet
F#m7 Bm B7sus2
You know we almost didn't notice it
B7sus2 A G A
We'd see it all the time on Forty-Second Street.
D G/D D
They burned the churches up in Harlem
Bm G A Asus4 A
Like in that Spanish Civil War
D/F# G
The flames were everywhere
D G/B
But no one really cared
A G/B D
It always burned up there before
INTERLUDE x2: D D A Asus4 A
D G/D D
I've seen the lights go out on Broadway
Bm G A Asus4 A
I watched the mighty skyline fall.
F#m7 Bm B7sus2
The boats were waiting at the Battery
B7sus2 A
The union went on strike
G
They never sailed at all.
D G/D D
They sent a carrier out from Norfolk
Bm G A Asus2 A
And picked the Yankees up for free.
D/F# G
They said that Queens could stay
D G/B
They blew the Bronx away
A G/B D
And sank Manhattan out at sea
INTERLUDE x2: D D A Asus4 A
D G D A
You know those lights were bright on Broadway
Bm G A
But that was so many years ago
F#m7 Bm B7sus2
Before we all lived here in Florida
B7sus2 A G
Before the Mafia took over Mexico.
D G/D D A
There are not many who remember
Bm G A
They say a handful still survive
D/F# G
To tell the world about
D G/B
The way the lights went out
A G/B Bb
And keep the memory alive
CODA (repeat for as long as u like): D C G Bb
