[Verse]
       F                 A#  F
In the heart of the city,
          F               A#  F
Where the alligators roam,
      F                A#  F
I'm a little lost when,
      F                  A#  F
Ain't got no place to go.
      F                    A#  F
Now I ain't got one minute,
           F              A#  F
Just gotta sit on my back,
       F               A#  F
I left home in a hurry,
         F
'Til I'm never going back.


[Chorus]
    C
I'm looking for a home,
       A#            F
In the heart of the city.

[Verse]
        F                      A#  F
Now I'm stepping on the street,
        F                    A#  F
And I'm stepping up the hill,
        F                   A#  F
And I'm looking for a lover,
         F                  A#  F
Looking, looking everywhere.
          F                 A#  F
Maybe I'm in with a chance?
       F              A#  F
I hear clickety clack.
       F            A#  F
It's a girl my lord,
            F\      F\
I see her stop, check
        A#      F
Turning double fast.

I'm looking for a lover,

In the heart of the city.

In the heart of the city.

Well in the heart of the city,
          F                 A#  F
Well it's part of the stars.
            F              A#  F
I hear that cassette music,
     F                A#  F
On a thousand guitars.
         F                     A#  F
Hey, the boys are on the prowl,
        F                 A#  F
They're checking out meat.
            F                A#  F
They know a bird in the hand,
         F                 A#  F
Is worth two on the street.


[Chorus 3]

They're checking the meat,
       A#            F
In the heart of the city.
