^E I went back to B^Aoston ^E Back to the city you were l^Aost in ^E I went back to the p^Alace Without your face in the st^Eone ^A

^E Walked around Harv^Aard Square The r^Eunaway kids are st^Aill hanging out there And I took the r^Eed line A^All the way across the River Ch^Earles ^A

S^Come things try and t^Gry But they n^Dever fly, and they n^Cever fly You r^Ceach up from the w^Gaves And find that you're o^Dnly w^Caving goodb^Eye ^A ^E ^A

^E Went walking in B^Aoston ^E Over a bridge I ^Aused to walk on I was l^Eooking for my heart That I'd fl^Aung into that sea of st^Eone ^A

Boston s^Eaid, you need not app^Aly ^E For your license to f^Aly Hey, young l^Eady, don't look so surpr^Aised You know you're not al^Eone ^A

S^Come things try and t^Gry But they n^Dever fly, and they n^Cever fly You r^Ceach up from the w^Gaves And find that you're o^Dnly w^Caving goodb^Eye ^A ^E ^A

^E You came all of t^Ahat way Looking for the s^Eky, you got a slap ^Ain the face You had a d^Eesperate need to ^Abe loved You just got put in that pl^Eace You better know yo^Aur place, boy

S^Come things try and t^Gry But they n^Dever fly, and they n^Cever fly You r^Ceach up from the w^Gaves And find that you're o^Dnly w^Caving goodb^Eye ^A ^E ^A O^Enly w^Aaving You're ^Eonly w^Aaving You're ^Eonly w^Aaving E A C G D C C G D (C) You're only waving goodbye
