Standard (EADGBE)

I’m just a big city boy.

Living in the cold country.

This place isn’t my home,

 But it’s the place I wanna be.

From time to time,

 When I lay awake at night.

 I just can’t help but wonder why.

 Why I ever left those big city lights

 And until when my friend

 Will I have to pretend?

 That I’m ever going back that way again

They say it won’t take too long

And I should put it into a song

Something about time and

But I can’t hear the tune.

I’m too busy howling at the moon E B

I’m just howling at the moon. E B

I’m just a big city boy.

Living in the cold country.

This place isn’t my home,

 But it’s the place I wanna be.

I’m just a big city boy.

Cause moving from town to town,

No longer appeals to me

I’m just a big city boy tryin’

to make it in the cold country.
