F  Am  D

[Verse 1]
C                D
People on the underground
                                     G
Sit silent as their tubes arrive on time

Faces like immortal stone
                                    G
Suppressing what they really feel inside

But who am I to criticize
                                        G       F
I close my eyes and I'll just keep on walking

[Chorus]
F           Am
Somebody's city
            G
Somebody's life
            F   Am
Somebody's city
            G
Somebody's life

[Verse 2]
C
Smokestacks pointing to the sky
     D                            G
And oil forever floating on the river
C
Impairing all the beauty God
     D                            G
Cre-ated in this life for you and me
C
But what the hell do I care
           D                                    G      F
I'll pre-tend it isn't there and I'll keep on walking

[Chorus]
F           Am
Somebody's city
            G
Somebody's life

[Bridge]
D
Even outside you find the rush hour's on
                 C
You're getting pushed everywhere, you're jammed in doorways
                      G
Man, it's so hard to move
D
Smoke fills the air, my lungs are turning to coal
              C
It's getting so hard to breathe
                                  G   F
I'm sorry lady if I'm leaning on you

[Instrumental]
F  Am  G  F  Am  G

[Verse 3]
C
I feel the time will surely come
       D                               G
When every-one will put their hands together
C
And pray the rain might wash away
      D                               G
The filth that we've donated to this land
C
But in-between what can be done?
     D                                         G      F
You dig your graves while I just stand there looking

[Chorus]
F           Am
Somebody's city
            G
Somebody's life
            F   Am
Somebody's city
            G
Somebody's life
