The other version of these chords sounded off so this is how I play it which I think is accurate. [email protected]
Intro
A--- C#m--- D--- Dm--- x2 Hold last Dm
Verse 1 No chords Hello city, hey AC#mDDm A Another night at the Palace, 'cause there is nothing else to do. C#mDDm Oh-woah, ah-hah AC#mD A The same people, the same drinks and the same music, the same quicksand C#mDDm (stop short) I think this harbour town is waist deep and sinking fast.
Chorus (same chords as verse) Hello city, you've found an enemy in me. Woah-oh, woah-oh [Andy Scatting] Hello city, (Hello city). Hello city, hey
Verse 2 (Same chords) Second night at the Warehouse, and my mock turtleneck just reeks. Woah-oh, woah-oh From the liquor room up to the changeroom To the doom and gloom of the hotel room, I wish this seaside beerhall would sink into the bay.
Chorus
Bridge (this part doesn't use much guitar-- mostly bass, but this is how I emulate it) BmC#m Maybe I caught you at a bad time, (wat'up) BmC#m Maybe I should call you back next week, (wat'up) BmC#m maybe half the fault is mine that (wat'up) the sun didn't shine on Bm Barrington Street.
Verse 3 (back to same progression) It's three o'clock in the morning, and I'm hungry so let's eat. Woah-oh, woah-oh. Climb down three flights to the streetlights and the barfights, we're just taking in the sights. I hope tomorrow that I wake up in my own bed.
(Hold Dm for bass solo and then back to chorus)
Chorus
End AC#m What a good place to be, Don't believe them, DDm 'Cause they speak a different language, and it's never been happy for me. (Continue the AC#mDDm progression It's happy hour again Woah-oh, woah-oh - It's happy hour again Woah-oh, woah-oh - Hello city, hey Dm---- A Woah-oh, woah-oh - Hello city - hey
Drag out Dm on last Hello City, end on A with 'hey'
