1. When you're alone and life is making you lonely
           G      Hmi C   D
   You can always go downtown.
     G           Hmi             C             D
   When you got worries all the noise and the hurry
             G        Hmi C   D
   Seems to help, I know downtown.
         G                           Emi
   Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
    G                                Emi
   Linger on the sidewalk where the neon lights are pretty
    Hmi
   How can you lose.

   The lights are much brighter there
               A
   You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares.
              G   Hmi  C              D
REF: Just go downtown, everything's great when you're
      G   Hmi   C         D
     Downtown, no finer place for sure
      G   Hmi  C             D           G
     Downtown, everything's waiting for you.

2. Don't hang around and let your problems surround you
   There are movie shows downtown
   And maybe you know some little places to go to
   Where they never close, downtown
   So listen to the music of a gentle bossa-nova
   You'll be dancing with them, too, before the night is over
   Happy again
   The lights are much brighter there
   You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares

REF: Just go downtown...

3. And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
   Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
   Guide them along
   So maybe I'll see you there
   We can forget all our troubles, foreget all our cares.

REF: We go downtown...
