A City With No Name Chords & Lyrics by Derek Webb
A City With No Name
guitar chords lyrics
Standard tuning
No capo
Am / D / Am / E
Am D Am E
everything was beautiful
Am D Am E
everything was right
Am D Am E
but you could not discern the source
Am D Am E
of this pure delight
Am D Am E
where all your wildest dreams are tame
Am D Am E
all your fiction true
Am D Am E
but you have less control of it
Am D Am
than it has of you
CHORUS:
C G C G D
it's a place you cannot live
C G C G D
in a city with no name
C G C G D
you can have what you bring in
C G C G E
but it always ends the same
(verse 2, same as first)
everyone was beautiful
all the lights were bright
the one you wanted most of all
was yours without a fight
the movement was so effortless
the poetry inspired
but she was yours without a word
it's you that she desired
(chorus)
BRIDGE:
Am Bb C Dm Em F G E
(verse 3, same as first)
everything soon disappeared
one thing left to do
the consummation of a dream
finally coming true
her mouth, the only thing that's real
the reason you're alive
your body paralyzed with fear
a kiss before you die
(chorus)
That's it! Enjoy :)
