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


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


[Interlude]
D#  G#  D#


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


[Chorus]
    A#
I'm looking for a lover,
       G#            D#
In the heart of the city.


[Interlude]
D#  G#  D#


[Chorus 2]
    A#
I'm looking, I'm looking,
I'm looking, I'm looking,
I'm looking, looking,
Looking, looking,
Looking everywhere,
       G#            D#
In the heart of the city.


[Interlude]
D#  G#  D#


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


[Chorus 3]
        A#
They're checking the meat,
       G#            D#
In the heart of the city.


[Interlude]
D#  G#  D#


[Outro]
D#
 Well I said;
    D#
The heart, heart,
G#       D#
 Of the city,
D#
 Heart, heart,
G#   D#
 Oh yeah.
D#
 Heart, heart,
G#       D#
 Of the city,
D#
 Heart, heart,
G#   D#
 Oh yeah.
