The City by Jockstrap
The City
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Bbmaj7
The city I met was pink
Cmaj7 Bbmaj7 Am
I tasted the city, ate out in the city
Gm7 A7
But the sky called up to me and it said
Bbmaj7
"Here, look at me, city"
Am C
Oh, what do I want, what do I want?
Bbmaj7 C F D7
"I suddenly want the city", I thought
Gm7 Bbmaj7
A thousand thoughts for a thousand times
Gm7 A7 Bbmaj7
I've loved in sheets with it on my mind
Am
You opened the doors
Bbmaj7 C F
The doors onto the veranda
Gm7 Bbmaj7
But I ran outside in the mustard air
Gm7 A7 Bbmaj7
With my arms outstretched to feel it
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 Bbmaj7
I breathed in a city like a fool
Cmaj7 Bbmaj7
But only because it was you
Am
My homing guide
Gm7 A7 Bbmaj7
And you told me I could have what you could not provide
Am C
Well, I believed you so
Bbmaj7 C F Ebmaj7 Fmaj7
That we would last forever, we thought, we thought
Gm7 Bbmaj7
Well, I told you in the city light
Gm7 A7 Bbmaj7
And your face was warm and your eyes were bright
Am7
I wish I'd known
Gm7
I was alone
Fmaj7 Ebmaj7
In city life

version 2
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
these are the chords on piano, i recommend if you’re playing it on the guitar to
replace the C6/E chord with
an Am chord! :) and make sure to play the A and Am chords as barre chords to
match the octave in the song
