AJenny left Efrom Idaho F♯mand made her home Din Capitol Hill E

AIn a 300 sqEuare foot sF♯mtudio above a coffDee shop near theE Broadway Grill

AAnd every nEight she waF♯mlks the block to tDrade in her timeE for cheap thrills

AAnd everyonEe she meetsF♯m is cool, but justD out of reach anEd it kills

F♯mShe used to spend her niDghts by firelighAt and singing to Ethe stars

F♯mNow shes ours E

AKevin left Efrom DenverF♯m where the air is Dclear and peopleE are nice

AAnd he tradEed it for sF♯mea level, for mistDy rain, what a bEitter compromise

F♯mFor now he felt like he Dbelonged to thosAe who understood Ehim

F♯mBut he sold his soul to Dfit right in andA he watched his fEriends desert him

F♯mHe used to spend his nigDhts by candleligAht and drinking wEine to vinyl

F♯mNow hes ours E

 Its a city of orDphans

 WhoA had nowhere Eto go

 So they cashed iDn their dreams

 Headed northwestA to the sea and they called itE their home

 But most dont beDlong here

 WerAe all runningE away

 And well drain you dry oDf all semblance of Alife

 We dont give we just take, taEke, take

Bridge

F♯mBut this city haF♯ms no Bible

F♯mTheres no meaninF♯mg you can use

 Were allD desperately Esearching for tAruth

 Were a city of oDrphans

 WhoA had nowhere Eto go

 So we cashed in our Ddreams, filled our glasses witAh Beam

 and our bodies wiEth smoke

 and we spend everDy weeknight

 tradinAg pints at thEe Streamline

 and we talk about tDruth and we talk aboutA love but we wEake up to lies, lies, lies

 its a city of orDphans

 wheAre did our faEthers go

 we stumble arounDd in the bad parAt of town at the end of ouEr rope

 but there are noD answers

 on Athe tables ofE oak

 if God could jusDt hear us

 we think that HeAs near, but He left long aEgo

 were a city of oDrphans

 what Ado we do to oEurselves?

 We take all the Dgood and the heaven arouAnd us and turn it to helEl

 We take all the Dgood and the heaven arouAnd us and turn it to helEl

 We take all the Dgood and the heaven arouAnd us and turn it to helEl

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!
