I've never posted music before, but I couldn't find anything at all for Nicole Atkins'
City", so I thought I'd just post what I figured out. This is just a basic progression I
up with to fit the vocal part, and it's not really a "guitar song", so anyone with much
could probably improve on this a lot.
The verse and pre-chorus are just four chords in sequence, Bb, Dm, Cm, F.
The chorus is Bb, Dm, Bb, Dm, then Cm,
Cm, F.
Here it is with the lyrics.
First verse:
Bb Dm
You can't see me from this view
Cm F
All the way down trailing the procession
Bb Dm
I'll hang out a few more days
Cm F
Then I'll be leaving this place too
Pre-chorus:
Bb Dm
Our hearts are singing out just for you
Cm F
Cemetary song for summer
Bb Dm
And if we knew just what we could do
Cm F
A cemetary song we'd not sing
Chorus
Bb Dm
I'm sitting over Neptune City
Bb Dm
I used to love it, it used to be pretty
Cm Dm
So I'll come down, walk around a while
Cm F
Until I'm sure I can never go home again
Break:
Bb Dm Bb Dm
Second verse: (same chords as the first)
Maybe if I paid attention
I could learn to love the landscape I was born to
By the river in the rain
Let it make me new again
Second prechorus:
Repeat first prechorus
Second chorus:
Repeat first chorus
Repeat break, fade out
