Verse 1:

	D/E
	They told me the streets were all paved with gold
	                                                C#m7/E
	But these dirty sidewalks are gray and concrete cold
	     G/A
	They said neon lights were a beautiful sight
	But how 'bout the one blinking in
	              C    E7sus4 E7
	My room all night

Chorus:

	              C#m7 F#m7  Bm7         E
	And where's the magic in this magic town?
	            C#m7 F#m7      Bm7             E
	Where's the good life they said could be found?
	          C#m7 F#m7  Bm7  /C# /D D#m7-5            D/E
	Where's the magic to make all my  big  dreams come true
	           (D/E)

	                         [N.C.]
	   Before I bring you to (to coda)

Verse 2:

	They said in this town you get rich in no time
	But here I am and I'm down to my last dime

	When nobody here gives a hang
	If I live or die
