I ^Ggrew up beneath the trees Not ^Dfar from the refineries ^EmAimed at the sky, like smoking guns I ^Amlearned to walk, I ^Clearned to ^Drun a^Gway ^D

^GTracing back our history It's a ^Dwonder how we came to be A ^Emlove driven through a dozen States With ^Amyour technique for ^Ckeeping ^Dme a^Gwake ^D

The ^Gday we met is still a blur Though I re^Dmember just how nice you were And ^Emwhat you wore in Central Park And ^Amhow you left be^Cfore the ^Ddarkness ^Gfell

CHORUS:

Now I ^Ccr^Dy over th^Gese strings ^DThis sentimental case of t^Emhings Though I'm ^Ambetter w^G6ith each ^Cpassing day I ^Amguess you'll ^G6be the ^Cone ^D/F#who got a^Gway ^D ^Dsus4 ^D

'Cause ^Geveryone has one of those You ^Dwear them like you wear your clothes Ex^Emcept they don't come off at night They ^Amare the space you ^Chold up ^Dto the ^Glight

INTERLUDE: D Dsus4 D Em Em7 C D

^GAnd somewhere along the line You'll ^Dturn into a friend of mine Who ^Emknows of my unspoken cares A^Ammid the after^Cmath of ^Dlove af^Gfairs

CHORUS:

Still I ^Ccr^Dy over th^Gese strings ^DThis sentimental case of t^Emhings Though I'm ^Ambetter w^G6ith each ^Cpassing day I ^Amguess you'll ^G6be the ^Cone ^D/F#who got a^Gway ^D ^Dsus4 ^D

^GNow I stand beneath these trees Not ^Dfar from the refineries ^EmAimed at the sky like a smoking gun I'll ^Amlearn to walk, I'll ^Clearn to ^Drun a^Ggain
