[Verse]
       A                 D  A
In the heart of the city,
          A               D  A
Where the alligators roam,
      A                D  A
I'm a little lost when,
      A                  D  A
Ain't got no place to go.
      A                    D  A
Now I ain't got one minute,
           A              D  A
Just gotta sit on my back,
       A               D  A
I left home in a hurry,
         A
'Til I'm never going back.


[Chorus]

I'm looking for a home,

In the heart of the city.

[Verse]
        A                      D  A
Now I'm stepping on the street,
        A                    D  A
And I'm stepping up the hill,
        A                   D  A
And I'm looking for a lover,
         A                  D  A
Looking, looking everywhere.
          A                 D  A
Maybe I'm in with a chance?
       A              D  A
I hear clickety clack.
       A            D  A
It's a girl my lord,
            A\      A\
I see her stop, check
        D      A
Turning double fast.

I'm looking for a lover,

I'm looking, I'm looking,

Looking, looking,
Looking everywhere,

In the heart of the city.

            A                 D  A
Well in the heart of the city,
          A                 D  A
Well it's part of the stars.
            A              D  A
I hear that cassette music,
     A                D  A
On a thousand guitars.
         A                     D  A
Hey, the boys are on the prowl,
        A                 D  A
They're checking out meat.
            A                D  A
They know a bird in the hand,
         A                 D  A
Is worth two on the street.


[Chorus 3]

They're checking the meat,
       D            A
In the heart of the city.

 Of the city,
