"the city has sex" by da pantyraider -B.E. -this tune has "ghost" drumming quotient. rock. chords in this number: G C D A B5 F --3---0---2---0-----------3-------| --0---1---3---2-----------0-------| --0---0---2---2---4---2---0-------| --0---2---0---2---4---3---0-------| --2---3-------0---2---3-----------| --3-------------------1---2-------| intro: (acoustic scratching noises preparing the listener for a definitive rocker) G C the city has sex with itself i suppose D G (G/f#) as the concrete collides, well the scenery grows G C and the lonely once bandaged lay fully exposed D (G) having exposed their wounds for each other G C and there is a boy in a basement with a four track D G machine he?s been strumming and screaming all night, (G/f#) G C down there.the tape hiss will cover the words that he D sings but then they say it?s better to bury your C G sadness in a graveyard or garden that waits for the A C D spring to awake from its sleep and burst into green G Em and i?ve cried and you would think i would better for D it but the sadness just sleeps and it stays in your C G G spine for the rest of your life and i?ve learned and Em you?d think i?d be something more now, but it just D C goes to show it is not what you know its what you were G thinking at the time. (then) ****the prog-latin part****: A5 A5 A5 C B#5 F repeat same repetition of verse/chorus music for last verse: this feeling?s familiar, i?ve been here before in a kitchen this quiet i waited for a sign or just somethingthat might reassure me of anything close to meaning or motion (with a reason to move)i need something i want to be close to and i scream, but i still don?t know why i do it because the sound never stays it just swells and decays so what is the point? why try to fight what is now so certain? the truth is all that i am is a passing event that will be forgotten.
