Sin City

Gram Parsons

 GD7
This old town is filled with sin,
 G7C
It'll swallow you in
 GD7
If you've got some money to burn.
 GD7
Take it home right away,
 G7C
You've got three years to pay
 GD7G
 But Satan is waiting his turn
CHORUS:
 CD7GG7
This old earthquake's gonna leave me in the poor house. 
 CGD7
It seems like this whole town's insane
 CD7G7C
On the thirty-first floor your gold plated door
 GD7G
Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain
 GD7
The scientists say
 G7C
It'll all wash away
 GD7
But we don't believe any more
 GD7
Cause we've got our recruits
 G7C
And our green mohair suits
 GD7GG7
So please show you I.D. At the door. 
CHORUS
(Instrumental break)
 GD7
friend came around.
 G7C
Tried to clean up this town;
 GG7D7
His ideas made some people mad.
 GD7
But he trusted his crowd,
 G7C
So he spoke right out loud
 GD7G
 And they lost the best friend they had
CHORUS
 CD7G7C
On the thirty-first floor your gold plated door
 GD7G
Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain
