Ryan Adams - Manchester Chords

[verse 1]
E       C#m
 Oldham streets
         F#m
Built to bruise
         B
Freckled face
                           E
And a pair of shuffling shoes
             C#m
Hot pink and red
         F#m
Rain and booze
        B
Running fast
                       E
Past the cotton mill crews
         C#m
Darkness creeps
            F#m
Through the halls
        B                   E
Til the walls come tumbling down
        C#m
Hold my hand
      F#m
I can tell
            B
Heart beats fast through the streets downtown

[chorus]
A                             E
I would throw it all away and choose
   A                                        B
If I could have been born three blocks from you
                 C#m         E
And we burn this city to the ground

[verse 2]
           C#m
Manchester ruins
       F#m
Like a ghost
         B                    E
With its rattling chains and moths
      C#m
Heron mill
           F#m
Bricks and lead
         B
Terraced homes hot pink and red

[chorus]
A                             E
I would throw it all away and choose
   A                                        B
If I could have been born three blocks from you
C#m   B
Oooooh
     C#m
From you oooooh

[interlude]
C#m F#m A
C#m F#m A
C#m F#m A
C#m

[outro]
       F#m       A           C#m    F#m  A  C#m
And we burn this city to the ground
       F#m       A           C#m   F#m  A  C#m
And we burn this city to the ground
       F#m       A           C#m    F#m  A
And we burn this city to the ground
       C#m    F#m A
To the ground
       C#m    F#m A
To the ground

[endi̇ng]
C#m  F#m
