Chords in this song
Strum
D-DU-UDU
A2 (5X4XXX) - emphasise the bass (i.e. the note on the low 'E' string)
V1: they're pacing picadilly in packs again
and moaning for the mercy of a never come rain
the sun's had enough and the shimmering sky
has the heave and the hugh of the woman on fire
shop shutters rattle down and i'm cutting the crowd
all scented and descending from the satellite towns
the neon is graffiti singing 'make a new start'
so i look for a plot where i can bury my broken heart
C1: no, i know i won't forget you, but i'll forget myself
if the city will forgive me
V2: the man on the door has a head like mars
like a baby born to the doors of the bars
and surrounded by steam with his folded arms
he's got that urban genie thing going on
he's so mercifully free of the pressures of grace
saint peter in satin, he's like budah with mace
he's so mercifully free of the pressures of grace
saint peter in satin, he's like budah with mace
C2: no, i know i won't forget you, but i'll forget myself
if the city will forgive me
no, i know i won't forget you, but i'll forget myself
if the city will forgive me
MID: do you move through the room with a glass in your hand?
thinking too hard about the way you stand?
are you watching them pair off and drinking them long?
falling in love every second song
do you move through the room with a glass in your hand?
thinking too hard about the way you stand?
are you watching them pair off and drinking them long?
are you falling in love are you falling in love
are you falling in love every second song?
baa____, ba, ba, baa____, ba, ba, baa____, ba, ba, baa____
C3: no, i know i won't forget you, but i'll forget myself
if the city will forgive me
no, i know i won't forget you, but i'll forget myself
if the city will forgive me
