[D]Walkingx into ele[C]phantx syringes in the puddle, like

[Em] xxxx I was a country boy when I moved out

[D]Grewx up too fast for m[C]yxx family to find out

[Em]Nowx I try to stop my music running into nosedives

[D]Can’tx resort to arrogance wit[C]hxx white lies

[Em] xxxx This city won’t erase me

But [D] Ixx can’t help to see how thi[C]sxx dark city changed me
