Trouble in Town (Song Length 4:39)
From Everyday Life (2019)
Tempo: ~95 | Key Signature: D minor | Tuning: Standard | Time Signature: 4/4 | Capo: No Capo
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Author Note: This song is a fantastic song it reminds me of the Rush of Blood to the Head Era with the
buildup and release, really amazing.
It is really powerful I feel it speaks a lot about screwed up legal systems and racism involved
around the world.
Once I have the time I'll tab the whole thing out however this is the simple version.
Also, the Gdim is an optional chord in the bridge. It acts as a transitional chord. Sounds good but optional
And imo the brige sounds the best when you triple pick the bottom 3 and 4 strings only for the Gm, Gdim and C7
Enjoy!

Don't come back with the "What is it?" fucking shit Dm
Talk to these fucking pigs on the street that way, you ain't talking to me that way
I don't talk to nobody in the streets, I don't hang with nobody
Well, then don't come to fucking Philadelphia, stay in Jersey
I have family out here Gm
Everybody thinks they're a fucking lawyer and they don't know jackshit
Are you supposed to grab me like this?
Grab you up? I'll grab you any way I goCt to
You're not protecting me while I'm tAmrying, while I'm trying to go to work
Why don't you shut up?
