VS Em7 F G  4x 
  

     VS            Em7     F  G 
The rangers had a homecoming in
VS           Em7  F
Harlem late last night
  G     VS                    Em7 
And the Magic Rat drove his sleek
   F  G   VS               Em7
machine over the Jersey state
    F G
line
  VS                           Em7
Barefoot girl sitting on the hood
      F
of a Dodge
          G         VS         
Drinking warm beer in the soft
   Em7
summer rain
          Dm              Am    
The Rat pulls into town rolls up
         Dm
his pants
                Am     Dm   
Together they take a stab at
       Am           Dm    
romance and disappear down
   G          VS Em7  F G VS Em7 F G
Flamingo Lane
  
   VS       Em7    F        
The Maximum Lawman run down
      G    VS             Em7   F
Flamingo chasing the Rat and the
     G
barefoot girl
VS                             Em7
And the kids round here look just
  F   G              VS    
like shadows always quiet,
       Em7   G
holding hands
 G        VS             Em7  F
From the churches to the jails
          G      VS     Em7     F
tonight all is silence in the world
Dm       Am       Dm Am Dm  
As we take our stand down in
 F      VS F VS F
Jungleland
  
VS          G      F             G
The midnight gang's assembled and
VS                    G  F        G
picked a rendezvous for the night
        VS                  G  
They'll meet `neath that giant
F         G VS                   
Exxon sign that brings this fair
  G   F
city light
G       VS                      
Man there's an opera out on the
G     F
Turnpike
G         VS                      
There's a ballet being fought out
  G     F
in the alley
G     VS           G   F         G 
Until the local cops, Cherry Tops,
VS            G  F
rips this holy night
    Dm            VS          F    
The street's alive as secret debts
          G
are      paid


        Dm          VS       
Contacts made, they vanished
  F    G
unseen
     Dm            VS        
Kids flash guitars just like
 F          G Dm              
switch-blades hustling for the
VS            F G
machine record
    Bb                   
The hungry and the hunted
VS    Dm
explode into rock'n'roll bands
      Bb                        
That face off against each other
                VS Dm     
out in the street down in
F         VS F VS F
Jungleland
  

Bb                                
In the parking lot the visionaries
 F
dress in the latest rage
VS               Gm             
Inside the backstreet girls are
  Bb                           
dancing to the records that the
F        VS
D.J. plays
Bb 
Lonely-hearted lovers struggle in
dark corners
F                              VS
Desperate as the night moves on,
 Gm               Bb          
just a look and a whisper, and
        VS
they're gone
    Eb       Bb       Bb        Bb 
Beneath the city two hearts beat 
     Cm                       
Soul engines running through a
Bb           Cm Bb   Abmaj7   Bb
night so tender in a bedroom locked
    Abmaj7      Bb     Eb      
In whispers of soft refusal and
 Bb     From   Bb7     
then surrender in the
 Eb
tunnels uptown
                                 
The Rat's own dream guns him down
         Cm        C9sus        
as shots echo down them hallways
           Cm C9sus
in the night
       Abmaj7               Bb   
No one watches when the ambulance
         Abmaj7 Bb
pulls away
          Cm                
Or as the girl shuts out the
VS            Cm
bedroom light

G           Dm           VS       
Outside the street's on fire in a
F          G7sus
real death waltz
  G       Dm              VS    F
Between flesh and what's fantasy
G7sus G  Dm        VS
and the poets down here
            F              G7sus
Don't write nothing at all, they
 G   Dm             VS     
just stand back and let it
   F  G7sus G
all be
G         
And in the
 Bb
quick of the night they reach for
their moment
                               
And try to make an honest stand
Dm              
but they wind up
       Bb
wounded, not even dead
   Dm7      F       VS
