Album: The Fabled City
With most of the song I find that it sounds better to just mute the high e string,
but use your own judgment.
Am G Am C X2
Me and AmHarvey shouted slogans Cin Spanish
G Like it was our world to Amwin
Then they move a plant down a Chater
Time to Gbite your tongue agAmain
I've Fseen the fabled Amcity
It's Gstreets are paved with gAmold
But an Firon fence ruAmns round it
It's Ciron gaGte is cAmlosed
Am G Am C X2
What aAmin't right ain't right he Ctold me
But something Gelse passed behind his eAmyes
No he's dAmowntown on his knees washing flCoors for somebody
And Gquietly biding his tAmime
I've Fseen the fabled Amcity
It's Gstreets are paved with gAmold
But an Firon fence ruAmns round it
It's Ciron gaGte is cloAmsed G F E

Am G Am C
The Amgas station on Sunset andC Crescent
I met an Gangel sad and oAmld
She lived in the alley beChind the market
In the Gshadows may be hidden from the lAmord
And fAmor a dollar she saCng a song
GSounded more like a pAmrayer
A wAmish that her dead mothCer and father
Couldn't Glook down and see her tAmhere
I've Fseen the fabled Amcity
It's Gstreets are paved with gAmold
But an Firon fence ruAmns round it
It's Ciron gaGte is cAmlosed
Am G Am C X2
On a Fwire outside my wAmindow
There Gsit one hundred sAmwallows
And I Fsuspect that iAmf one flew
Then nGinety-nine would foAmllow
