Parquet Courts

One Man No City

by Parquet Courts
Parquet Courts

Biography:

Parquet Courts is a band from New York City. At the center of the group is A. Savage, who at this point is known for his collaborations with projects like Fergus & Geronimo, Teenage Cool Kids and Wiccans. Savage is joined by three other musicians (“three quarters Texans and three quarters Pisces”) and describes the bands’ debut release as THE FALL meets NEIL YOUNG. On the band’s debut release, “American Specialties”, this all makes sense.

___________________________________________________________________________

E is actually a Em7no5, and E2 is actually a Em6no5, check http://www.chorderator.com/designer/

I'm referring to them as E and E2 for ease of tabbing and viewing.

B|-----------------------------|
G|-7---x-7-7---6-6---6-6-6-6-7-| main riff, something like this
D|-5---x-5-5---5-5---5-5-5-5-5-| just sound it out, use your ears
A|-7---x-7-7---7-7---7-7-7-7-7-| it's not complicated, whatsoever
E|-----------------------------|

All but one chord for Bridge/Outro are barred, and rooted on the low E string.
(I.E. Use barred E chord shape on 3rd, 5th, and 8th frets)

The main chord (Gsus2/A), referred to as A2

[Verse 1]

E E2
Where I'm from, well no one lived there.
E E2
I look back now, nothing's changed.
E E2
Where I'm from now, still no one lives there.
E E2
Look back again and lock the door.
E E2
Yeah, I maintain, I still remain
E E2
one man solitary and no city.
E E2
One man solitary and no city.
E E2
One man solitary and no city.

[Verse 2]

E E2
"Cogito ergo sum" people say,
E E2
but think again 'cause I have no faith.
E E2
I find building blocks filled with nothing.
E E2
Seen an ink blot page and I said nothing.
E E2
"Outside? I'll check it out it's just a mirror."
E E2
"Look back now!" An empty page.
E E2
Yet I maintain, I still remain,
E E2
one man solitary and no city.
E E2
One man solitary and no city.
E E2
One man solitary and no city.

[Verse 3]

E E2
No town and no city
E E2
No identity and no city
E E2
No thoughts, no feelings and no city
E E2
No, you just me I think and no city
E E2
No words I speak and no city
E E2
No outside and no city
E E2
Nothing at all and no city
E E2
No way home and no city
E E2
No relief and no city
E E2
No sympathy and no city
E E2
No understanding and no city
E E2
There's no one else and no city
E E2
Yet I maintain, I still remain,
E E2
one man solitary and no city.
