Take back the city for yourself tonight

A7sus4 A6sus4 Asus2
And it’s both cradled you and crushed

But now it’s time to make your own demands

Your broken records and words
A7sus4 A6sus4 Asus2
Ten thousand craters where it all should be

It’s a mess, It’s a start
D5 F5
It’s a flowing work of art
A5 G5
Your city, your call
D5 F5
Every crack, every wall
A5 G5
Can’t decide, pick a fight
D5 F5
Get your head if it’s upright
A5 G5
You can sing till you drop
D5 F5
Causes the fun just never stops

Chorus:
A
I love this city tonight
C D
I love this city always
A
It bares its teeth like a light
C D
And spits me out after days
A
But we’re all gluttons for it
C D
We know it’s wrong and it’s right
A
For every time it’s been hit
C A
Take back the city tonight

A7sus4 A6sus4 Asus2
And I will stop talking now
A7sus4 A6sus4 Asus2
One perfect partner, one eternal kiss
A7sus4
Whoa whoa

A7sus4 A6sus4 Asus2
Take back the city for yourself tonight
A7sus4 A6sus4 Asus2
I’ll take back the city for me
A7sus4 A6sus4 Asus2
