Intro: G#m

           G#m
There's an old shed at the end of an overgrown driveway

And years ago that shed collapsed and fell
        C#m
Years before that there's a withered dog chained up there
  G#m
I saved him maybe he saved me as well
         D#                           C# 
Now he's gone and I think I've come undone
     G#m             C#m        G#m
It's midnight in the city of destruction


Chorus:
G#m
La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la
C#m
La la la la la la la la
G#m      C#m         G#m
La la la la la la la la

        G#m
There's music in the air and suites abandoned

They're singing 'cross farm in the evening breeze
            C#m
But there's someone in the rows who's unwanted
    G#m
And now they cut the faithful from the trees
        D#                        C# 
And the bulldozers move in one by one
         G#m             C#m        G#m
And it's midnight in the city of destruction

Chorus

          G#m
I lost my guitar my home my hope and my good fortune

I lost my grandfather, two neighbors and my friend
            C#m
I pray that God myself will come and drown the president
C#m    
If the levees break again
          D#                                     C# 
Now we're standing at the crossroads waitin' for instruction
         G#m             C#m        G#m
And it's midnight in the city of destruction

Chorus

          G#m
There's a secret prison somewhere south of 60

And in that secret prison there is a secret cell
        C#m
And the prisoners bound and burned, blinded and beaten
           G#m
Still that secret prisoner keeps his secret well
             D#                                 C# 
Turn out the lights cause for one night that's enough son
     G#m             C#m        G#m
It's midnight in the city of destruction

Chorus
