Well, you were happy where you were
A E
But that girl she wheeled you in
C#m G#m
This time was never good enough
A E
'Cause she was gone and seen everything
E
And if you ever spoke of love
A E
She just smiled and put you down
C#m G#m
'Cause she was making all the plans
A B
She had a vision of light and sound
E A E B
She said the neon on the river will light my way
E A C#m B
And everything that we've been dreaming of making real one day
C#m
So save your money pack your bags
A B
We better run before we disappear
E A E B
She took the train into the city but you're still here
E
You hear a song that takes you back
A E
The song long for God tonight
C#m G#m
And friends who said they hang your back
A E
But they just turned them round and let you fight
