My Petersburg - Anastasia Original Broadway Cast Recording chords by Soundtracks

Verse:
 C     G            F
I grew up on the sly
         Em              Am         F
In the gutters and the streets of Petersburg
C      G             F
Just a kid on the fly
         Em             C
Getting good at getting by
A#
In Petersburg

Verse:
                     A
I've bartered for a blanket
D

Stolen for my bread
F#m
Learned to take my chances
A          D
And use my head
      A
A Russian rat is clever
C#m          F#m      B
Clever or he ends up dead

Chorus:
N.C
Boils down to
D
There are some
C#m
Who survive, some who don’t
Bm
Some give up
            F#m
Some give in, me, I won’t
E
Black and blue
        D
Welcome to
My Petersburg

Instrumental:
A D C F

Verse:
C                      F
Standing here you can see
         Em             Am        A#
From the spires to the piers of Petersburg
C                      F
I'd be down on that quay
          Em      Am           A#
Selling stolen souvenirs of Petersburg

Verse:
A
The palaces above
         D
And alleyways below
F#m
Funny when a city
    D
Is all you know
    A
How even when you hate it
C#m              F#m       B
Something in you loves it so

Chorus:
                  D
That's where I learned my stuff
         C#m
In some rough company
Bm                     F#m
There's a boy growing up, who was me
E          D
All I've been
          E
All I'll be

Bridge:
       D#
We can do what we're told
       Dm
We can go where we're lead
        Gm                      Cm          F
But I learned from my father to see what's ahead
C
Nothing here to hold me
G
No one that I owe
C              G
Funny how a boy can grow
D               A                             B
Funny how a city tells you when it's time to go

Chorus:
N.C.
Boils down to
D
There are some
         C#m
Who have walls yet to climb
Bm
You and I
        F#m
On the fly, just in time
Bm
But tonight
          D
There’s a sky
             C#m  F#
And quite a view

Bm       C#m A D E
Welcome to
          A     D      A
