Cm Bb
Fighting through to haze of another damn day
Ab
Remembering who I used to be
Cm Bb
Walking through the streets I was born and raised
Ab
Funny how they'll out live me
Cm Bb
Take a drive down 35th avenue
Ab
Knowing it'll never be the same
Cm Bb
But the stand still traffic on the 202
Ab
Tells me some things will never change
Cm Bb Ab
Ab
Tell me will I ever change
Cm Bb Ab
Ab
Maybe I've already changed
[Chorus]
Cm
This city, she cuts like a knife
Bb Eb
Better learn to love the fast pace life
Ab
She's a bittersweet town
Bb
She can break you down
Cm
This city, she sees no rain
Bb
Holds no grudges and knows no shame
Ab
She can make or break a man
Bb
Well this city made me who I am
Cm Eb Ab
She made me who I am
[Pre-Verse]
Cm Eb Ab
[Verse 2]
Cm Bb
Countless nights above the city lights
Ab
Where the mountains know my name
Cm Bb
Think about the years gone by
Ab
And the memories they contain
Cm Bb
Another day over 118
Ab
Tomorrow's even higher
Cm Bb
But nights like these created me
Ab
Here in the city of fire...
Cm Bb Ab
Ab
Here in the city of fire...
Cm Bb Ab
[Chorus]
Cm
This city, she cuts like a knife
Bb Eb
Better learn to love the fast pace life
Ab
She's a bittersweet town
Bb
She can break you down
Cm
This city, she sees no rain
Bb
Holds no grudges and knows no shame
Ab
She can make or break a man
Bb
Well this city made me who I am
