Standard (EADGBE)

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

 Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

 ( ( low , low ) , , /F# )

 Say you don't know me, or recognize my face

 Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place

 Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight

 Too many runaways eating up the night

 Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember

 We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

Someone's always playing corporation games

Who cares they're always changing corporation names

We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage

They call us irresponsible, write us off the page

  ( /F#) /B ( )

It's just another Sunday, in a tired old street

 Police have got the choke hold, oh----oh, oh, oh, but we just lost the beat

Who counts the money underneath the bar

Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars

Don't tell us you need us, 'cos we're [the ship of] fools

Looking for Bmerica, crawling through your schools

"I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge, out on another gorgeous sunny Saturday,

I've seen that bumper-to-bumper traffic" (CHORUS)

"Here's your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city the city by the bay,

the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps"

Marconi plays the mamba.. . (CHORUS)
