Note: This is yet another version of Night In The City. I have blended
various versions: Steve and Leslie Mixon played a similar intro, which
I transcribed. Pat Hillis transcribed the rest of this song, and I made
up a few of my chord shapes. It's really fun to play! The exclamation
point means a drum hit when you play a certain chord.
Tuning: D A D F# A D, capo V
Intro: Fret numbers are actual numbers, NOT relative to the capo.

Then the rest of the verse is played (I have no idea what to play there),
and the other verses play the same thing above.
The outtro is just the intro played a lot of times, and the last riff is:
