City of stars

 
                         Dm/F riff x 2
Are you shining just for me?
        
City of stars

    
              
There's so muc

              
h that I can't

 
 see
        
Who knows?

  
              
I felt it from

             
 the first emb

        
race I shared 

       
with you
           
That now our d


reams

Just one thing everybody wants

        
There in the b

        
ars
              
And through th

              
e smokescreen 

       
of the crowded

 restaurants
         
It's love
              
Yes, all we're

              
 looking for i

           
s love from so

      
meone else
  
A rush
  
A glance
   ( 
A touch
   (
A dance

[Chorus]
        
To look in som

         
ebody's eyes
              
To light up th

  
e skies
            
To open the wo

 
rld and send t

hem reeling
        
A voice that s

              
ays, I'll be h


ere
              
And you'll be 

  
alright

        
I don't care i

Just where I w
