Black Death Allstars: Lights in the city
Chorus:
D G
The lights in the city they don't shine for me
D A
The lights in the city they don't shine for me
D G
The lights in the city they don't shine for me
D A D
If I don't get another beer I'll never get to sleep
Verse 1:
D G
Well I walked the streets of Pittsburgh at the hours of a ruined man
D A
Till I woke up in Boston with a pistol and a broken hand
D G
The broken hand it didn't move, the pistol didn't shoot
D A D
But pressed into a teller's nose the teller told the truth
Chorus:
cause the lights in the city they don't shine for me
the lights in the city they don't shine for me
the lights in the city they don't shine for me
I'm takin up my money, goin back to Tennessee
Verse 2:
D G
Well I put that pistol in my belt, grabbed my sack of cash
D A
I felt the cold steel stiff against the small part of my back
D G
I laid low in the suburbs and I got so fuckin high
D A D
Then I came to with three (something) and a fourth beneath my eye
Chorus:
Cause the lights in the city they don't shine for me
the lights in the city they don't shine for me
the lights in the city they don't shine for me
Im takin up my money, movin back to Tennessee
Verse 3:
D G
Winter in New Orleans lost my fingers in a mill
D A
So I said fuck a job and I said fuck some payin bills
D G
I spent my workmans comp on a pistol and some charges
D A D
And now Im livin easy scrappin copper off the bardges
Chorus:
Cause the lights in the city they don't shine for me
the lights in the city they don't shine for me
the lights in the city they don't shine for me
You smash those fuckin cameras and you'll get away scott free
Chords and most of the lyrics, (something) refers to the one word
I couldn't figure out. It sounds like he could be saying "Majors" but
Im not sure.
