A
we argued on the channel train to paris
E
the vanrougue helped us make it sweet again
Bm
but by the time that we got down to lyon
A
everything i said was wrong
E
and you cursed me in the rain
A
we split up for a while in barcelona
E
we met up six days later in madrid
Bm
i was hoping that the break would
make it go a little better for us
A E
and for a little while it almost did
D
now i’m in a bar in copenhagen
A
and i’m tryin’ hard to forget your name
G E
and i’m staring at the label of a bottle of cervasa
A
and every fxxking city looks the same
A
you said to call me when i got to london
E
a french girl said you’d left a note
Bm
i said to her ’i like your accent’
and she thought i sounded funny
A E
so we ended up drinking in soho
A
foolishly i followed you to dublin
E
like a ghost i walked the streets of temple bar
Bm
and all the bright young things
were throwing up their guinness in the gutters
A E
and once i thought i saw you from afar
D
now i’m in a nightclub in helsinki
A
and they’re playing la vida loca once again
G
and i can’t believe i’m dancing to this crap
E
but i’m a chance here
A
and every fxxking city sounds the same
[ modulate up one step to B ]
B
at a cafe; in the port of amsterdam
F#
an email from you said you’d gone to rome
C#m
for a minute i thought maybe
but my funds were running low
B F#
and anyway it sounded like you weren’t alone
B
so i headed north ’til i got to hamburg
F#
a chilly city suits a troubled soul
C#m
and on the reaperbahn
i paid a woman far too much
B F#
to kick me out before i’d even reached my goal
E
now i’m in a restaurant in stockholm
B
and the waiter here wants me to know his name
A
and i can order sandwiches
F#
in seven different languages
B
but every fxxking city looks the same
A F#
arevaderci , au revoiur , auf weidersein , hasta la vista . . . . . baby
B
every fxxking city’s just the same .
