         DREAMING OF THE CITY - Kid Dakota
-----------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard

Intro: C G C Dm

C                             G
at dusk, the stars feel awkward.
Dm                         F
they're so hesitant to shine.
C                      G
and late at night when we're all tired and sleeping,
Bb                                      F
they light the world that we leave behind.

C                                 G
and lately i've been chasing comets
Bb                 F
in a spaceship on TV.
C                         G
while you go out at night you get piss drunk and comment
Bb                       F
on how much you mean to me.

Dm              Em            Am
and there's something i wanna tell you,
Dm          Em           Am
but it's so difficult to say.
Dm               Em                     C       G       Am
'cause baby, the words sound like we're talking underwater
F                                  G 
when you're so, when you're so far away.

C                          G
well, if i only had a gutter
Dm                             F
well, i could catch it when it falls.
C                        G
but my basement's slowly filling up with water.
Bb                             F
it's running down the concrete walls.
C                                    G
and you could say it's been a bad year
Bb                            F
and you'd be saying something true.
C                                                     G
well it's almost like, it's almost like a cheap print of a picasso painting,
Bb                       F
one with seven shades of blue.

Dm            Em              Am
and i've been dreaming of the city
Dm            Em          Am
what a wonderful place to be.
Dm        Em       C  G   Am
i've been dreaming of the city
F                                       G
but the city, the city doesn't dream of me.
Bb                                     A 
yeah the city, the city's gonna let me be.

Dm                F
i'm almost out of here.
        C                                 Bb                               
no more wasting time watching the weather channel.
Dm                F
i'm almost out of here.
        C                                        Bb
no more reading the road maps. see, i'm ready to travel.
Dm                  Gm
i'm almost out of here.
F                    A
i've been on my best behavior.
Dm                           Gm
i'm putting puzzles together with my grandmas.
F                 A      
i'm almost out of here. 
F                       Am            Gm
i'm almost out of south dakota, south dakota.
       F C Bb
almost.

F           C            Bb
well i miss the city lights.
F           C            Bb
well i miss the city lights.
F           C             Bb
well i miss the silly fights that we used to have.
F           C            Bb
well i miss the city lights.
