Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
I know this isn't perfect so any feedback/changes would be greatly appreciated!
Also, I'll admit I did this on a tenor ukelele, but I think it'll transfer OK to guitar.
Enjoy, it's a beautiful song.

MMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMM
F Dm F
Took a cab to the city to clear my mind
F Dm Bb
I drank my way through the streets and in the Sailortown
Bb Dm C
I took so much stuff I thought I'd never come down
F Dm Bb
Made me feel much better than I'd felt for awhile
F Dm F
I found girls that helped me up from falling down
F Dm Bb
I never once gave my heart out, never let them inside
F Dm C
There was just too many ghosts, and too much crime
F Dm Bb
My heart wasn't fit to be the loving type
Bb Gm C
With dreams of better days in mind
F Dm Bb
O Lord, won't you see me through to better times
Bb Dm C
And if I don't make it out alive
F Dm Bb
Put my name on a chair right by your side
F Dm Bb F C Bb
MMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMM
F Dm F
I took a job there singing almost every night
F Dm Bb
Entertaining hearts more broken than mine
Bb Dm C
Waiting for a light to shine
F Dm Bb
To lead me right out of my dark decline
Bb Gm C
With dreams of better days in mind
F Dm Bb
O Lord, won't you see me through to better times
Bm Dm C
And if I don't make it out alive
F Dm Bb
Put my name on a chair right by your side
F Dm Bb F C Bb
MMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMM
F Dm F
Took a cab to the city to clear my mind
F C Bb
I ended up with a mind needing exorcised
Bb Gm C
With dreams of better days in mind
F Dm Bb
O Lord, won't you see me through to better times
Bb Dm C
And if I don't make it out alive
F Dm Bb
Put my name on a chair right by your side
Bb Dm C
And if I don't make it out alive
F Dm Bb
Put my name on a chair right by your side
