"City Kids" Acoustic Chords - Flyleaf I've watch the guitars acoustic version the guitarist does and come up with something pretty rough. Use the intro for the verses. I do lots of weird finger picking in the verse and chorus. Some of the Ems in the chorus sound a bit odd, but I cant find a better chord atm. I've done this in root position so Stick a capo on where ever suits you I personally have to tune down to C standard. But I think the one the guitarist does is Enjoy!

You were just a girl, you wrote a letter, it said that we were dearest friends
