[C]
[G] Hi, [C] [G]
[B] we are The Sam Chase.
[A] We are at Lennon Rehearsal Studios [Bb] in San Francisco.
And this song is a homage to my hometown of San Francisco.
It's called I Sold My Soul to the City.
[B] [C]
The day I stepped my first foot in the city, I promised I wouldn't sell my soul.
The day I stepped that one first foot in the city, I promised I wouldn't sell my soul.
But when [G] the lights and the scene they [F] shot down on to me, [C] I swear to [G] you that night I [F] saw the light.
Now if the [G] devil comes a-callin', [C] you can give him [Am] my apartment, [F] then I will [G] sign right on that [C] dotted line.
My mama always said, those girls of the city are the kind of girls you'd like for you to see.
My mama always said, son, don't get too busy, all those girls should have no fear of me.
But [G] when those girls showed me these gifts [F] they gave me for free, [Am] I swear it [G] brought a tear [F] to my eye.
Now if this [G] whiskey and women [C] don't kill me, [Am] I'm certain [F] that it's pretty [G] clear that I will [C] never die.
Whoa, it's pretty [G] clear that I will [C] never die.
[F] Whoa!
[G]
[C]
Now after all that I've done, all that I've seen, good luck putting me down at the ground.
Cause I have lived and laughed and loved and gambled, boozed and stolen, enough to tear any grown man down.
[G] And oh, Lord, [F] whoa, Lord, [Am] whoa, look at [G] what your [F] boys done tonight.
So now [G] if you have words for me, [C] oh, you can take [Am] it all with us.
[F] We all need [G] my left [C] hook and my right.
[F] So now if you [G] have words for me, [C] oh, you can [G] take it all [Am] with us.
We [F] all need [G] my left hook and [C] my right.
[G] [C]
[Bb]
Living in this [Ab] perfect world, where none of us will [Eb] ever die.
Whoa!
[Ab] [Dm] [A] But I am not so much a man [G] who stays private, just a ghost who's growing [Dm] old.
[A]
[Em] [D] You can take away these
