We are the city
A D
Where the lights come on and they never go out
A D
And the streets are filled with the children's shouts
A D E
I want to hear you sing that song for me
A D
I want to capture one at a time
A D E
All the little brown flecks that made my eyes go blind
A D
All the wide eyed splendor that I put in a frame
A D E
I want to tear it down and let it throw perspective insane
A D
There's a light up in a box at the top of a post
A D E
Giving direction to the shadows that could use it the most
A D
Turn aside pilgrim at the sound of her voice!
G A
It's wisdom herself that offers the choice
F# D F#
Oh, come to the city
D F# E
We're taking over the world

My momma said 'Son, you're a little man
'Listen to me and understand
A
'Soon we're gonna take that car
'And drive away where ever we are'
All palm muted
A
Let's go
We'll catch a ride to the city
A
Let's go
where the streets are wide
A
Let's go
We'll catch a ride to the city
A
Let's go
