[Verse 1]

D              D2 
 Where I'm from, well no one lived there.
D               D2
 I look back now, nothing's changed.
D                  D2
 Where I'm from now, still no one lives there.
D                D2
 Look back again   and lock the door. 
D                D2
 Yeah, I maintain, I still remain
D                 D2
 one man solitary   and no city.
D                 D2
 One man solitary   and no city.
D                 D2
 One man solitary   and no city.

[Verse 2]

D             D2   
 "Cogito ergo   sum" people say,
D                       D2 
 but think again 'cause   I have no faith.
D                       D2
 I find building blocks   filled with nothing.
D                      D2
 Seen an ink blot page   and I said nothing.
D                            D2
 "Outside? I'll check it out   it's just a mirror."
D                 D2               
 "Look back now!"   An empty page.
D              D2
 Yet I maintain, I still remain,
D                 D2
 one man solitary   and no city.
D                 D2
 One man solitary   and no city.
D                 D2
 One man solitary   and no city.

[Verse 3]

D        D2
 No town   and no city
D            D2
 No identity   and no city
D                         D2
 No thoughts, no feelings   and no city
D                        D2
 No, you just me I think   and no city
D                 D2
 No words I speak   and no city
D           D2
 No outside   and no city
D               D2
 Nothing at all   and no city
D            D2
 No way home   and no city
D          D2
 No relief   and no city
D            D2
 No sympathy   and no city
D                 D2
 No understanding   and no city
D                    D2
 There's no one else   and no city
D              D2
 Yet I maintain, I still remain,
D                 D2
 one man solitary   and no city.
