Sin City
Intro: G D G C G D C G
G D
This old town ‘s filled with sin
G C
It’ll swallow you in
G D
If you got some money to burn
G D
Take it home right away
G C
You’ve got three years to pay
G D G G7
The city is waiting his turn
(chorus)
C D G G7
This old earthquake ‘s gonna leave me in the poor house
C G D
It seems like this old town ‘s insane
C D G C
On the thirty-first floor, a gold plated door
G D G G D G C G D C G
Won’t keep out the lord’s burning rain
G D G C
The scientist say, it will all wash away
G D
But we don’t, believe anymore
G D
So we got our recruit
G C
And a green mohair suit
G D G G7
So please show your I.D. at the door
(chorus)
G D G C
A friend came around, tried to clean up this town
G D
His ideas made some people mad
G D G C
But he thrusted his crowd, so he spoke right out loud
G D G G7
And they lost the best friend they had
(chorus)
