consider how young Danny was (14/15 if i'm not\r\nmistaken).So,I know this song has a lot of those open chords which make it\r\nsound so great but I just didn't have the time to figure them\r\nout.These,however,I think work quite well with the song.","plain_text":"McFly (Danny Jones)\nSilence of the City\n\n\nAm G D/F# E\n\nVerse:\n\n\nI got home from work quite
