City Song (Cifras)

I figured this out from a live acoustic version so I'm not totally sure if the full 

is the same but this is good enough to strum along to.



Capo 3

G



G                        Em7

The city called me so I came

Am                                D

It isn't mine to question what it said

G                                 Em7

I sleep until the point when I'm awake

Am                                   D

I walk until there's nothing left to tread

G                                 Em7

And everyone was looking for an answer

Am                               D

And everyone was waiting for a break

G                                   Em7

I came and I was bored of it soon after

      Am

But I had

D7                         Am

nowhere to go and so I stayed

D7                            Am

I dreamed a lifetime of this place

D7                           G

It seemed an awful thing to waste



C/D/G/G/C/D



G                                          Em7

Oh, the morning fills my mouth up with decay

Am                                  D

I like it, it reminds me how you taste

G                                     Em7

Sometimes I feel you rising up behind me like the wind

Am                           D

But I still try to look away

G                                    Em7

What will you look like when you're old?

(What will you look like when you're old?)

Am                               D

What will I do if I don't know you?

(What will I do if I don't know you?)

G                       Em7

I guess that I decided not to ask the day

            Am

I took the road

D7                        Am

Down to the city as it called

D7                          Am

Sun making silhouettes of gauze

D7                      G

I don't remember you at all



C/D/G/G/C/D/G/C/D

G                         Em7

The city called me and I came

Am                        D

It isn't mine to question why

G                                  Em7

Sometimes the clouds will part ahead, I hear your name

Am                        D

It's like a choir in the sky

G                                   Em7

What will you look like when you're old?

(What will you look like when you're old?)

Am                              D

What will I do if I don't know you?

(What will I do if I don't know you?)

G                         Em7                        Am

I guess that I decided not to ask the day I took the road

D7                        Am

Down to the city as it called

D7                         Am

Sun making silhouettes of gauze

D7                                          G

I don't remember you, I don't remember you at all



C/D/G/G x2

C/D/Am



D7                          Am

They pulled a human from my waist

D7                             Am

It had your mouth, it had your face

D7                                                G

I would have kept it, I would have kept it if I'd stayed.
