Intro:

E  C  D (x2)

Verse 1:

E          C      D
 I'm going out to-night,
E                    C     D
 I dont know if I'll be al-right.
E                   C    D
 Everyone, wants to hurt me,
E                               C  D
 There's too much danger in the ci-ty.

E          C       D
 I have to carry a knife,
E                    C              D
 Because people keep threatening my life.
E                       C     D
 I can't dress just the way I want,
E                        C        D
 I'm being chased by The National Front.

Chorus 1:

F         Em
 Concrete jungle;
    C                 D
The animals are after me.
F         Em
 Concrete jungle;
   C                D
It aint safe on the streets.
F         Em
 Concrete jungle;

 Glad I got my mates with me.

E              C     D
 I won't fight for a cause,

 Don't want to change the law.
E                     C          D
 Leave me alone, just leave me a-lone,
E                  C     D
 I want to get out on my own.

E            C       D
 I'm walking home to-night,
E                          C       D
 I only walk where there's lots of lights.
E                      C    D
 In the alleys and the door-ways,
E                             C       D
 Some throw a bottle straight at your face.
