Chords for The Poppy Family - Of Cities And Escapes

_ _ [D] I live in a one room [Am]
apartment with [Bb] _ windows [A] on one side
Stare [D] through the glass across [Am] the water [C] to [Bb] where the big [A] ugly city lies
[Em] [F] I hear it, I feel it, I read it with [Bb] my eyes
[F] And I'm lost in [Am] the crowd of [Bb] the city, [C]
the life [Dm] I _ [Am] despise
I [Bb] _ _
_ [E] _ [D] wake with the groan, it's [Am] the phone, what [Bb] news can it bring?
[A] It let it ring
The [D] paper lies crumpled on [C] the floor, politics [Bb] and war
And there [A] goes the door
[F] And I who sit and watch it all [Bb] go by
_ [Bbm] Wonder why I can't go
_ [Eb] [F] I'm caught in [Am] the grip [Bb] of the city, [C] _ [Dm] madness and small
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ [A] _
[C] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] I am my mind [C] out of the reach of time

Above _ [Gm] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
the [F] traffic's hollow, I watch the race for [A] dollars
The angry, sweated [Dm] callers as people waste their [E] hours
Then there came the [F] time when I knew that all [C] was ending
I felt my wings [Am] descend if only I could stay up another day
I [D] live in a one room [Am] apartment with [Bb] _ windows on [A] one side
_ [Dm] I stare through the glass, fuck [Am] the _ [C] water, [Bb] look where the big ugly [A] city _ [Dm] dies _ _ _ _ _
