1.They say the neon lights are bright on Broad - way
    A               G      A      G      A  G   A G
  they say there's always magic  in the air
   D                C      D         C     D  
  but when you're walkin' down the street,
                 C     D       E
  and you ain't had enough to eat_____
   A           G          A     G              A  G  A G 
  the glitter rubs right off   and you're nowhere.

   A              G   A      G            A    G    A  G   
  but lookin' at them  just gives me the blues_____
   D       C       D         C     D
  How ya gonna    make some time,
C      D         E 
  when all you got is one thin dime_______
   A            G           A    G           A   G   A  G

  I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home, they all say
   D                 C           D        C    D

                C         D      E 
  cause I can play this here guitar______
  A        G         A     G          A      G      A  G 
  I won't quit till I'm a star   on Broad - way____

  On Broad_________way

All chords shown are open, though for the ending he uses
Barre A & G.  For the riff, just finger the open A chord
on & off.  Let the note on e string ring out and mute somewhat
