City Blues

[Intro ]

E 


[Verso 1]
 
E 
It's so hot in the city makes it hard to stay cool 
E 
He was restless out in the suburbs so he ran away from school 
E 
He needed money to keep the game real 
E 
He's not smart enough for working so he's learning how to steal 
 


[Refrão]
 
G   D    G  A         G    D A     E 
Thunder and lightning sweet summer rain 
         G  D  G A             G   D    A E 
Like the seasons passing is it all just a game 
 


[Verso 2]
 
E 
Summer sun heats the city and the warm winds cool the night 
E 
Sirens tear at the silence as night bird takes flight 
E 
She came looking for so much. We wept while it passed her by 
E 
Cause there's so much more to living than just waiting 'round to die 
 


[Refrão]
 
G   D    G  A         G    D A     E 
Thunder and lightning sweet summer rain 
         G  D  G A          G   D   A E 
Like the seasons passing is love only pain 
 


[Verso 3]
 
E 
Hear the sounds in the city she screams and she moans 
E 
Love is a bell that rings life is a fleeting thing 
E 
Once you've heard that music play magic quickly fades away
