I figured this out from a live acoustic version so I'm not totally sure if the full
is the same but this is good enough to strum along to.
Capo 3
G
G Em7
The city called me so I came
Am D
It isn't mine to question what it said
G Em7
I sleep until the point when I'm awake
Am D
I walk until there's nothing left to tread
G Em7
And everyone was looking for an answer
Am D
And everyone was waiting for a break
G Em7
I came and I was bored of it soon after
Am
But I had
D7 Am
nowhere to go and so I stayed
D7 Am
I dreamed a lifetime of this place
D7 G
It seemed an awful thing to waste
C/D/G/G/C/D
G Em7
Oh, the morning fills my mouth up with decay
Am D
I like it, it reminds me how you taste
G Em7
Sometimes I feel you rising up behind me like the wind
Am D
But I still try to look away
G Em7
What will you look like when you're old?
(What will you look like when you're old?)
Am D
What will I do if I don't know you?
(What will I do if I don't know you?)
G Em7
I guess that I decided not to ask the day
Am
I took the road
D7 Am
Down to the city as it called
D7 Am
Sun making silhouettes of gauze
D7 G
I don't remember you at all
C/D/G/G/C/D/G/C/D
G Em7
The city called me and I came
Am D
It isn't mine to question why
G Em7
Sometimes the clouds will part ahead, I hear your name
Am D
It's like a choir in the sky
G Em7
What will you look like when you're old?
(What will you look like when you're old?)
Am D
What will I do if I don't know you?
(What will I do if I don't know you?)
G Em7 Am
I guess that I decided not to ask the day I took the road
D7 Am
Down to the city as it called
D7 Am
Sun making silhouettes of gauze
D7 G
I don't remember you, I don't remember you at all
C/D/G/G x2
C/D/Am
D7 Am
They pulled a human from my waist
D7 Am
It had your mouth, it had your face
D7 G
I would have kept it, I would have kept it if I'd stayed.
Enjoy, Mike x
