[Strophe]
D                   G/B           D     A 
I've seen the lights go out on Broadway 
Bm         G                 A 
 I saw the Empire State laid low. 
F#m7                          Bm 
 And life went on beyond the Palisades, 
B7sus2          D 
 They all bought Cadillacs 
A               G 
 And left there long ago.
[Strophe]
D            G/B            D       A 
 They held a concert out in Brooklyn 
Bm            G              A   Asus4 A 
 To watch the Island bridges blow. 
D/F#             G 
 They turned our power down 
D              G/B 
 And drove us underground 
A            G/B                D 
 But we went right on with the show
[Instrumentale]

[Strophe]
D              G/D              D 
 I've seen the lights go out on Broadway 
Bm         G           A  Asus4 A 
 I saw the ruins at my feet 
F#m7                       Bm       B7sus2 
 You know we almost didn't notice it 
B7sus2      A                     G             A 
We'd see it all the time on Forty-Second Street.
[Strophe]
D                G/D            D 
 They burned the churches up in Harlem 
Bm            G                A  Asus4 A 
 Like in that Spanish Civil War 
D/F#              G 
 The flames were everywhere 
D           G/B 
 But no one really cared 
A          G/B                   D 
 It always burned up there before
[Instrumentale]

[Strophe]
D              G/D              D 
 I've seen the lights go out on Broadway 
Bm             G              A  Asus4 A 
 I watched the mighty skyline fall. 
F#m7                          Bm      B7sus2 
 The boats were waiting at the Battery 
B7sus2      A 
 The union went on strike 
           G 
They never sailed at all.
[Strophe]
D            G/D              D 
 They sent a carrier out from Norfolk 
Bm              G                 A  Asus2 A 
 And picked the Yankees up for free. 
D/F#            G 
 They said that Queens could stay 
D               G/B 
 They blew the Bronx away 
A            G/B            D 
 And sank Manhattan out at sea
[Instrumentale]
(D  D  A Asus4 A) x2
[Strophe]
D               G                        D      A 
 You know those lights were bright on Broadway 
Bm              G             A 
 But that was so many years ago 
F#m7                     Bm         B7sus2 
 Before we all lived here in Florida 
B7sus2       A              G 
 Before the Mafia took over Mexico. 
D              G/D        D      A 
 There are not many who remember 
Bm          G                A 
 They say a handful still survive 
D/F#         G 
 To tell the world about 
D            G/B 
The way the lights went  out 
A               G/B       Bb 
 And keep the memory alive
[Outro]
