Song About A City

C Am F    C Am F


[Verse 1]
          C Am     F
I used to take the train
                   C Am   F
Upstate to see the colors change
                  C Am      F
Nothing's falling quite the same
                  C Am     F
No matter where I land
                   C Am    F
This New York City rooftop bar
                     C Am     F
Just looks up at the same old stars
                   C Am    F
Thought that I had come so far
                              C Am F
But it doesn't matter where I am


[Chorus]
       Am                   G
I took two steps in Austin, One back in Boston
F
Tried to love something new
          Am                G
I found a lonesome highway, Brand new skyline
    F
But nothing could change my tune
                     C          Am  F
Wish I could write a song about a city
                       C Am F
Instead of songs about you
C Am F


[Verse 2]
                     C Am      F
I thought I'd find a brand new leaf
                C Am   F
Drive on out to Joshua Tree
                   C Am   F
Dry those tears in desert heat
                 C      Am   F
But the silence was too loud
                    C Am     F
I wish that I could make the most
             C Am    F
Of the magic on this coast
                     C  Am       F
Can't see the beauty through the ghost
               C         Am    F
That I'm still dragging around


[Chorus]
                 Am         G
All the way from Monterrey, Santa Fe
     F
Just trying to love something new
          Am                G
I found a lonesome highway, Brand new skyline
    F
But nothing could change my tune
                     C          Am  F
Wish I could write a song about a city
                       C Am F
Instead of songs about you


[Instrumental]
Am   G   F       x2


[Bridge]
                      C Am    F
But it doesn't matter where I am
                      C Am    F
No, it doesn't matter where I am


[Outro]
       Am                   G
I took two steps in Austin, One back in Boston
F
Tried to love something new
          Am                G
I found a lonesome highway, Brand new skyline
    F
But nothing could change my tune
                     C          Am  F
Wish I could write a song about a city
                       C Am F
Instead of songs about you
                     C          Am  F
Wish I could write a song about a city
                       C Am F
Instead of songs about you
