G#
Oh oh, I can't even take it in
D#m
Oh oh, I can't even take it in
C#                             G#
Oh oh, I left my heart in metropolis

    G#           A#m             F#
So far apart, I checked but the coast was clear
   A#m         G#
I feel like a postcard
  A#m            F# A#m
I wish you were here
G#                                            A#m
Subway through the dark, carriage through the park
 F#                                      A#m
Taxi down the street, get out and use my feet
       G#                      A#m         F#
Don't matter much to me what it is that I do
                       A#m
As long as I'm coming home to you

Chorus:
G#                        D#m
Oh oh oh, as far as I can see
          C#                              G#
You're the only one, the only one who can get to me
                            D#m
Like a hijacked plane or a runaway train
       C#                          G#
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
       A#m              F#
I left my heart in metropolis

A thousand miles feels like a million years
Like hundreds of postcards that say,
"I wish you were here" (I can't even take it in)
Airplane through the sky, greyhound racing by
Dirt bike on the beach, sailboat on the sea
Don't matter much to me what it is that I do
As long as I'm coming home with you

Chorus

          A#m           G#    A#m F# A#m
I left my heart in metropolis
         G#                   D#m
Like a hijacked plane or a runaway train
        C#                          G#
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
       A#m              F#
I left my heart in metropolis
       A#m              G#
I left my heart in metropolis
       A#m              F#
I left my heart in metropolis
       A#m              G#
I left my heart in metropolis

(G#)                  A#m
 Oh oh, I can't even take it in
F#                   A#m
 Oh oh, I can't even take it in
G#                   A#m
 Oh oh, I can't even take it in
F#                A#m            G#
 Oh oh, I left my heart in metropolis
