One Great City Guitar Chords The Weakerthans

[Intro]

A/Db G D
A/Db G D

[Verse]

A/Db G D
Late afternoon, another day is nearly done
A/Db G D
A darker grey is breaking through a lighter one
A/Db G D
A thousand sharpened elbows in the underground
A/Db G
That hollow hurried sound

[Chorus]

Bm A/Db G
Feet on polished floor
Bm A/Db G
And in the dollar store
Bm A/Db E
The clerk is closing up
G
And counting loonies trying not to say
D
I hate Winnipeg

[Verse]

A/Db G D
The driver checks the mirror seven minutes late
A/Db G D
The crowded riders’ restlessness enunciates
A/Db G D
The Guess Who sucked, the Jets were lousy anyway
A/Db G
The same route everyday

[Chorus]

Bm A/Db G
And in the turning lane
Bm A/Db G
Someone’s stalled again
Bm A/Db E
He’s talking to himself
G
And hears the price of gas repeat his phrase
D
I hate Winnipeg

[Break]

A/Db G D
A/Db G D
A/Db G

[Chorus]

Bm A/Db G
And up above us all
Bm A/Db G
Leaning into sky
Bm A/Db G
Our golden business boy
Bm A/Db G
Will watch the North End die
Bm A/Db E
And sing, “I love this town”
G
Then let his arcing wrecking ball proclaim

G A/Db D
I Hate Winnipeg
