Standard (EADGBE)

We argued on the channel train to Paris

 The vanrougue helped us make it sweet again

 But by the time that we got down to Lyon

 Everything I said was wrong

 And you cursed me in the rain

 We split up for a while in Barcelona

 We met up six days later in Madrid

 I was hoping that the break would

make it go a little better for us

 And for a little while it almost did

Now I'm in a bar in Copenhagen

 And I'm tryin' hard to forget your name

 And I'm staring at the label of a bottle of cervasa

 And every fucking city looks the same

You said to call me when I got to London

 A French girl said you'd left a note

 I said to her 'I like your accent'

And she thought I sounded funny

 So we ended up drinking in Soho

Foolishly I followed you to Dublin

 Like a ghost I walked the streets of Temple Bar

 And all the bright young things

were throwing up their Guinness in the gutters

 And once I thought I saw you from afar

Now I'm in a nightclub in Helsinki

 And they're playing La Vida Loca once again

 And I can't believe I'm dancing to this crap

 but I'm a chance here

 And every fucking city sounds the same

[Modulate up one step to B]

At a cafe; in the port of Amsterdam

 An email from you said you'd gone to Rome

 For a minute I thought maybe

but my funds were running low

 And anyway it sounded like you weren't alone

 So I headed north 'til I got to Hamburg

 A chilly city suits a troubled soul

 And on the Reaperbahn

I paid a woman far too much

 To kick me out before I'd even reached my goal

Now I'm in a restaurant in Stockholm

 And the waiter here wants me to know his name

 And I can order sandwiches

 in seven different languages

 But every fucking city looks the same

 Arevaderci, au revoiur, auf weidersein, hasta la vista.....baby

 Every fucking city's just the same.
