I've never posted music before, but I couldn't find anything at all for Nicole Atkins'
City", so I thought I'd just post what I figured out. This is just a basic progression I
up with to fit the vocal part, and it's not really a "guitar song", so anyone with much 
could probably improve on this a lot.

The verse and pre-chorus are just four chords in sequence, Bb, Dm, Cm, F.

The chorus is Bb, Dm, Bb, Dm, then Cm,
Cm, F.

Here it is with the lyrics.


First verse:

Bb                         Dm
You can't see me from this view

            Cm                   F
All the way down trailing the procession

Bb                       Dm
I'll hang out a few more days

             Cm           F
Then I'll be leaving this place too


Pre-chorus:

Bb             Dm
Our hearts are singing out just for you

Cm                F
Cemetary song for summer

Bb        Dm
And if we knew just what we could do

Cm                   F
A cemetary song we'd not sing


Chorus

Bb               Dm
I'm sitting over Neptune City

Bb                    Dm
I used to love it, it used to be pretty

             Cm          Dm
So I'll come down, walk around a while

          Cm         F
Until I'm sure I can never go home again


Break:

Bb Dm Bb Dm


Second verse: (same chords as the first)


Maybe if I paid attention


I could learn to love the landscape I was born to


By the river in the rain


Let it make me new again


Second prechorus:

Repeat first prechorus


Second chorus:

Repeat first chorus


Repeat break, fade out
