Nick Cave - City In Pain | The Jeffrey Lee Pierce Sessions Project chords
Start Jamming...
[E]
[D] All the simple things have been getting so hard.
All the money's tight, man it gets so hard.
My little [Bm] child is in the street [D] again.
My baby girl, [Bm]
she walks the street again.
[D] It's [G] a shame,
[F#m] I can feel the shit is [Bm] hitting.
[F#m] [E] Go burn [Bm] down our house, burn up the green street.
I said a man of the moon, I can't do it anymore.
It's [G] a simple shame, [F#m] I feel the shit is [Bm] hitting.
It's [G] a shame, [F#m] to see the city's [Bm] aflame.
My brother's walk, another block.
Cops banging the door, they're cranking up the violence.
[G] But it's a shame, [F#m] to see the [Bm] city's pain.
But [G] it's a shame, [Em] [F#m] to see our [Bm] city's flames.
[D] I'm not [F#m] taking it like [Bm] it is.
Oh
[F#] [Bm] brothers and sisters, all are calling tonight.
[F#m] [Bm] All our brothers and sisters, hanging on the corner tonight.
But it's [Em] a [G] shame, [F#m] to see our [B] city's pain.
[Bm] But [G] it's a shame, [F#] to see our city's [B] holiday.
[Bm] I'm not taking it like it is.
Come on.
[F#] [Bm] Come on.
[F#] [Bm]
[F#] [Bm]
[F#] [B]
