WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Steve Earle - This City Ukulele | Ver. 1
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.
