Intro: A E f#M D E
A E f#M D E
Jenny left from Idaho and made her home in Capitol Hill
A E f#M D E
In a 300 square foot studio above a coffee shop near the Broadway Grill
A E f#M D E
And every night she walks the block to trade in her time for cheap thrills
A E f#M D E
And everyone she meets is cool, but just out of reach and it kills
f#M D A E
She used to spend her nights by firelight and singing to the stars
f#M E
Now shes ours
A E f#M D E
Kevin left from Denver where the air is clear and people are nice
A E f#M D E
And he traded it for sea level, for misty rain, what a bitter compromise
f#M D A E
For now he felt like he belonged to those who understood him
f#M D A E
But he sold his soul to fit right in and he watched his friends desert him
f#M D A E
He used to spend his nights by candlelight and drinking wine to vinyl
f#M E
Now hes ours
D
Its a city of orphans
AE
Who had nowhere to go
D
So they cashed in their dreams
AE
Headed northwest to the sea and they called it their home
D
But most dont belong here
AE
Were all running away
DA
And well drain you dry of all semblance of life
E
We dont give we just take, take, take
Bridge:
f#M f#M
But this city has no Bible
f#M f#M
Theres no meaning you can use
DEA
Were all desperately searching for truth
D
Were a city of orphans
AE
Who had nowhere to go
DA
So we cashed in our dreams, filled our glasses with Beam
E
and our bodies with smoke
D
and we spend every weeknight
AE
trading pints at the Streamline
DAE
and we talk about truth and we talk about love but we wake up to lies, lies, lies
D
its a city of orphans
AE
where did our fathers go
DAE
we stumble around in the bad part of town at the end of our rope
D
but there are no answers
AE
on the tables of oak
D
if God could just hear us
AE
we think that Hes near, but He left long ago
D
were a city of orphans
AE
what do we do to ourselves?
DAE
We take all the good and the heaven around us and turn it to hell
DAE
We take all the good and the heaven around us and turn it to hell
DAE
We take all the good and the heaven around us and turn it to hell

This is my first song to put up here. I'm not too sure on the 4 F#m's in the bridge
section, but it fits. I hope this works for you, Thanks!
