[Verse 1]
            D
Oh, City of Daughters
      A                 F#m
La da da La da da La da da
                 G             Gm
Is that what you wanted to be?
            D
Oh, City of Daughters
      A                 F#m
La da da La da da La da da
                 G             Gm
Is that what you wanted to be?
            D
Oh, City of Daughters
          A                          F#m
Is it not safe to say you've come when called?


[Chorus]
E        F#m     G
A minor point of contention
        E         F#m           G
It's the pointlessness of the invention
               E             F#m
Trust, there's no need to remind us
      G
We're all dying alone tonight!


[Verse 2]
             D
In a City of Daughters
A                         F#m                                G            Gm
Sister, I confess, I have forgotten just what it is that you wanted to be
D                            A
Fluffing and a-folding those clothes that you were sold in
    F#m                            G            Gm
To servicing what it is you always wanted to be
      D                                   A
In Vancouver, things are simple when they fit you to a "T"
       F#m                               G         Gm
Once again, you have refused the new pornographies


[Chorus]
E       F#m         G
A minor bone of contention
         E       F#m            G
It's the soullessness of the convention
E                       F#m
Rock 'n' roll sure came through for you
          G
Why would anybody want it to?


[Bridge]
D           A                            F#m       G
What is it about music that lends itself so well
   D           A        F#m    G   Gm
To business-as-fucking-usual?


[Chorus]
E       F#m          G
A minor source of contention
         E       F#m            G
It's the soullessness of the convention
E                       F#m
Rock 'n' roll sure came through for you
          G
Why would anybody want it to?


[Outro]
            G
When we can burn the living proof, go!
