G                               D7 
Daylight Monday morning turning off the Great White Way 

                                               G 
Through the smoke and haze the city starts its day 
  
                                  C 
It’s a day to day survival in the battle zone 

           D7              G 
And a blue jungle with you gone 


                            C 
It’s a blue jungle with you gone 

       D7                       G 
It’s a cold empty city when you walk these streets alone 

                                        C                Am 
Like a world past is screaming when you hear the whistle moan 

           D7              G 
And a blue jungle with you gone 


                                 D7 
The weekend party’s over and I’m sober once again 

                                           G 
And it’s hard to face the world without my friends 

                                         C 
And it’s a dog eat dog existence just to make it all alone 

           D7              G 
And a blue jungle with you gone 


                            C 
It’s a blue jungle with you gone 

       D7                       G 
It’s a cold empty city when you walk these streets alone 

                                        C                Am 
Like a world past is screaming when you hear the whistle moan 

            D7              G 
It’s a blue jungle with you gone 


       C    D7              G 
It’s a blue jungle with you gone
