(E)When you're alone
And life is (A)making you (B7)lonely,
You can (E)always go (A)down(B7)town
(E)When you've got worries,
All the (A)noise and the (B7)hurry
(E)Seems to help, I know, (A)down(B7)town

Just (E)listen to the music of the (C#m)traffic in the city 
(E)Linger on the sidewalk where the (C#m)neon signs are pretty
(G#m)How can you lose?
(A)The lights are much brighter ther
You can for(B7)get all your troubles, forget all your cares and go

(E)Downtown, (A)things'll be great when you're
(E)Downtown, (A)no finer place for sure,
(E)Downtown, (A)everything's (B7)waiting for (E)you

(E)Don't hang around
And let your (A)problems sur(B7)round you
There are (E)movie shows (A)down(B7)town
(E)Maybe you know
Some little (A)places to (B7)go to
Where they (E)never close (A)down(B7)town

Just (E)listen to the rhythm of a (C#m)gentle bossanova
(E)You'll be dancing with 'em too (C#m)before the night is over
(G#m)Happy again
(A)The lights are much brighter there
You can for(B7)get all your troubles, forget all your cares and go

(E)Downtown (A)where all the lights are bright,
(E)Downtown, (A)waiting for you tonight,
(E)Downtown, (A)you're gonna (B7)be alright (E)now

And (E)you may find somebody kind to (C#m)help and understand you
(E)Someone who is just like you and (C#m)needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along
(A)So, maybe I'll see you there
We can for(B7)get all our troubles, forget all our cares and go

(E)Downtown, (A)things'll be great when you're
(E)Downtown, (A)don't wait a minute more,
(E)Downtown, (A)everything's (B7)waiting for (E)you
