Intro:
/
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse 1:
This whole city’s black and white
Tell me what is your color.
/
'Cause it'd be the same as mine.
Faded greens and blue street lights,
There’s a red fire burning
/
From the sea up to the sky.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chorus 1:
'Cause I don’t want to wait until tomorrow
Tell you how I'll feel the rest of my life
You don’t want to waste another minute when you realize
Walking on the dark side of the evening
Maybe it was you that opened my eyes
Burning like a fire on the water
/
In the city of black and white.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Post Chorus 1:
/
Won’t you just stay?
/
Won’t you just stay?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse 2: (See Verse 1)
I’m on the top stair looking down
If you're climbing up to me
It’s where the whole world wants to be found
Golden rings and coffee brown
There’s white flag waving
Where my heart is on the ground.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chorus: (See Chorus 1)
'Cause I don’t want to wait until tomorrow
Tell you how I’ll feel the rest of my life
You don’t want a waste another minute when you realize
Walking on the dark side of the evening
Maybe it was you that opened my eyes
Burning like a fire on the water
In the city of black and white.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Post Chorus: (See Post Chorus 1)
Won’t you just stay?
Won’t you just stay?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bridge:
Won’t you just stay now, Where the light goes
Dadd2/4
Under a dark street, No one else knows
Take my hand
/
I'll carry you, you can carry me.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chorus: (See Chorus 1)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outro:
/
Won't you just stay?
/
Won't you just stay?
/
Won't you just stay now, stay now, stay now when the light glows
Won't you just stay....Won't you just stay?
