This City Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Steve Earle
Steve Earle does lots of modulation on the D (mostly sus2 and sus4 from what I can tell)

C
This city won't wash away
This city won't ever drown
Blood in the water, and Hell to pay
Sky tear open and pain rain down

C
Doesn't matter let come what may
Am
I ain't ever gonna leave this town
C
This city won't wash away
This city won't ever drown

C
Ain't the river or the wind to blame
As everybody around here knows
Nothing holding back Pontchartrain
'cept a prayer and a promise's ghost

C
This town's digging our graves 
Am
In solid marble above the ground
C
Maybe our bones will wash away
But this city won't ever drown

C
This city won't ever die
Just as long as our heart beats strong
Like a second line steppin' high
Raisin' hell as we roll along

C
Gentille to Vieux Carre
Am
Lower 9, Central City, Uptown
C
Singing jockamo fee nané
This city won't ever drown

C
Doesn't matter 'cause there ain't no way
Am
I'm ever gonna leave this town
C
This city won't wash away
This city won't ever drown.
