Wickedest City Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]With vastness came power,
and with [F]power came abuse
Like [G]smugly green -eyed monster
from the [F]deepest of [C]hell
Creeping in silence,
[F]fattened on white flesh
[G]Grinding down the prairie
with the [F]twist of its [C]heel
The truth will never eat through
that [F]silver armoured skin
[G]Our towers rise above the sand,
[F]boundaries that divide
[C]The darkness hides a million kinds of sin[F]
The [G]darkness hides a [F]mil
lion lonely [C]lives
[G]But at night it looks so pretty
Stretching to the western hori[C]zon
[F]Laced I drink with [G]poison,
[Am]dressed I'm picking [C]pearls
[Dm]We'll go stepping out in the
[G]wickedest city in the [C]world[F][G][F][C]
I am just a hog, fall[F]ing off a log
But vote [G]for me or I [F]will kill your [C]dog
The winter is so long,
the [F]bitter is so strong
Don't [G]fall and break your
[F]neck on your way [C]home
By [G]night it looks so pretty,
stretching to the western hori[C]zon[F][G][Am][C]
[Am]We'l[C]l go s[Dm]teppin' out
In the [G]wickedest [Em]city [G]in the
[C]world[Dm][G][C]
[Dm][G][C]
You
