• Song:

    Chi-town

  • Artist:

    The Cribs

The G bits in the verse are just two very quick hits of the G chord. Pretty simple really-
I prefer to play them as power chords, G5, C5, A5 etc, but you may prefer barred or open.


Intro

G5 X 2

Chorus
C5                       G5
Meet me down in Chi-Town,
C5
in Logan Square underground
F5
You know the one,
C5                  G5
we were always there.
C5                      G5

Verse 1
C5          A5     E5
Forget the airport
      G5
and cut my hair short
C5           A5      E5
Eat cookies and cream
      G5                           C5
from the store at the end of the street,
             A5
There's so much junk in my head,
E5              G5
will I only  hear when you're dead?
C5               A5              E5               G5
But I'll still think of you to take it out on myself.
