Dirty city Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]The story of my life was such,
nobody wanted to hear
Every time I told it,
put their hands across their ears
So I went down to the dirty city,
where the people live on dreams
And I sang out on the corner,
tryin' to turn the heads
of [D]kings and queens
[Em]Yeah, sang ooh, I sang ooh, I sang ooh,
to the [D]dirty [Em]city
Then I noticed the back of a matchbox
And it didn't make much sense at all
Sad people heading to the stars
To get a better chance to fall
I thought that's no good to you and me
We got so far to go
But then I realized the truth is free
It's only the [D]lies that [Em]show
Yes, I move, I move,
I move to the [D]dirty [Em]city[D][Em]
Some people work hard for all their lives
and never get a thing
Some people seem to do nothing,
and have all that life can bring
You and I, we've been working so hard,
trying to get somewhere
Oh, but maybe when we do that,
we'll find we really, [D]didn't [Em]care
We'll say, ooh, we'll say,
ooh, we'll say, ooh,
through the [D]dead to see [Em]the day.
We'll say, ooh, we'll say,
ooh, we'll say, ooh.
Oh
