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.

  but lookin' at them  just gives me the blues_____
   D       C       D         C     D
  How ya gonna    make some time,
C      D         E

  I won't quit till I'm a star   on Broad - way____

ending - A  G chords over Neil's crazy ad lib.

  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
the last 4 notes.  Any corrections, additions welcome.
