(Chorus) (Dm) Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark 
Summer night city 
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park 
Summer night city 
 
(VERSE) (Dm) In the sun I (Bb) feel like sleeping 
© I can't take it for (Dm) too long 
(Dm) My impatience (Bb) slowly creeping 
© Up my spine and (Dm) growing strong 
(D) I (D/C) know what's (Bb6) waiting (Gm) there for me (D) (D/C) (Bb6) (D/A)

(Gm) When the night comes (Eb) with the action 
(F) I just know it's (Gm) time to go 
Can't resist the (Eb) strange attraction 
(F) From that giant (Gm) dynamo
