Hello City Barenaked Ladies
A--- C#m--- D--- Dm--- x2
Another[A] night at the Palace, 'cause there is nothing else to do.
Oh-[C#m]woah, ah-h[D]ah [Dm]
The same people, [A]the same drinks and the same music, the same quicksand
C#m D Dm (stop short)
I think this harbour town is waist deep and sinking fast.
Chorus (same chords as verse)
Hello city, you've found an enemy in me. Woah-oh, woah-oh (Andy Scatting)
Hello city, (Hello city). Hello city, hey
Verse 2 (Same chords)
Second night at the Warehouse, and my mock turtleneck just reeks. Woah-oh, woah-oh
From the liquor room up to the changeroom
To the doom and gloom of the hotel room,
I wish this seaside beerhall would sink into the bay.
Chorus
Bridge (this part doesn't use much guitar-- mostly bass, but this is how I emulate it)
Maybe I[Bm] caught you at a bad time, ([C#m]wat'up)
Maybe I should [Bm]call you back next[C#m] week, (wat'up)
maybe [Bm]half the fault is mine that (wat'up) the [C#m]sun didn't shine on
[Bm]Barrington Street.
Verse 3 (back to same progression)
It's three o'clock in the morning, and I'm hungry so let's eat. Woah-oh, woah-oh.
Climb down three flights to the streetlights
and the barfights, we're just taking in the sights.
I hope tomorrow that I wake up in my own bed.
(Hold Dm for bass solo and then back to chorus)
Chorus
What a good place to [A]be, Don't b[C#m]elieve them,
'Cause they s[D]peak a different language, and it's ne[Dm]ver been happy for me.
(Continue the A C#m D Dm progression
It's happy hour again
Woah-oh, woah-oh - It's happy hour again
Woah-oh, woah-oh - Hello city, hey
Woah-oh, woah-oh - Hello [Dm----]city - h[A]ey
Drag out Dm on last Hello City, end on A with 'hey'
