Em          Am                Em                     
No sun will shine in my day today (no sun will shine)
                Am                     D                                                
The high yellow moon won't come out to play (dancin' yellow moon won't come out to play)
       C                               Em      
I said (darkness) darkness has covered my light
C                                        Em              
(And has changed) and has changed my day into night, yeah
G                       D                            
Where is thislove to be found? Won't someone tell me?

'Cause life (sweet life) must be somewhere to be found (out there somewhere for me)

[Chorus]
Em                                 
Instead of concrete jungle (jungle)
Am                  Em     
Where the living is hardest
Concrete jungle (jungle)
Am                     Em  
Man you got to do your best

[Verse 2]
Em         Am                         Em   
No chains around my feet, but I'm not free,
            Am                   D  
I know I am bound here in captivity;
           C                           Em           
And I've (never know) never known what happiness is;
     C                                   Em       
I've never (never know) known what sweet caress is
       G                              D                            
Still, I'll be always laughing like a clown; Won't someone help me?
       Em            
'Cause I (sweet life)
            Am                       Em                                  
I've got to pick myself from off the ground, (out there somewhere for me)

[Chorus]
                    Em            
In this a concrete jungle (jungle)
        Am                    Em                       
I said, what do you want from me (concrete jungle) now?
         Em              Am                    Em                        
Concrete jungle (jungle), why won't you let me be (concrete jungle), now?

[Chorus]
