Steve Earle - This City

steve earle does lots of modulation on the D ( mostly sus2 and sus4 from what i can tell )

D
this city won’t wash away
this city won’t ever drown
blood in the water , and hell to pay
sky tear open and pain rain down

G
doesn’t matter let come what may
Em
i ain’t ever gonna leave this town
D
this city won’t wash away
this city won’t ever drown

D
ain’t the river or the wind to blame
as everybody around here knows
nothing holding back pontchartrain
’cept a prayer and a promise’s ghost

G
this town’s digging our graves
Em
in solid marble above the ground
D
maybe our bones will wash away
but this city won’t ever drown

D
this city won’t ever die
just as long as our heart beats strong
like a second line steppin’ high
raisin’ hell as we roll along

G
gentille to vieux carre
Em
lower 9 , central city , uptown
D
singing jockamo fee nane
this city won’t ever drown

G
doesn’t matter ’cause there ain’t no way
Em
i’m ever gonna leave this town
D
this city won’t wash away
this city won’t ever drown .
