G
It was only seven blocks
Am
Walking to the subway
C
You can’t miss the tracks
D
Out here they're elevated
G                         Am
So you get a chance to breathe
                         C
But in the dead of winter
                D
You just have to freeze
/* Start a fast folksy strum*/
           G     Am
But I never go out
C             D
Once I get home
G                 Am
Just seems pointless
 C                D
To venture out alone
G            Am
If I can just lure
C               D
You in here with me
G               Am
Just say my name baby
 C             D
It’s up and coming
G              Am
I'm not being cheap
C               D
I’m just being poor
G                 Am
So call yourself a car
C                  D
And cross the boulevard

G              Am            C          Am
Why don’t you start thinking about
G         Am           C            Am
Coming home with me, coming home with me(x2)

Bridge: G Am C Am
G
But the radiators cold
Am
The windows leaking winter
And we’re sleeping in our clothes
C
Creaking wooden floor
Am
Trip to the bathroom
Louder than the sex before
G                 Am
The bed slowly travels down me
C             Am
Incline of the room
G                      Am
The bed slowly travels down me
C                Am
Incline of the room
G           Am        C        Am
Why don’t you start thinking about
G            Am       C        Am
Coming home with me, coming home with me (x2)
G
And portions of the evening
I’m missing
Am
It’s no mystery
                     C
I found receipts in the
                                  D
The pieces that trace back to our fateful, yeah...
G
our meeting
Am
It’s not easy
C
Finding someone else
D
When you’re still,
G
you’re still bleeding
Am
You’re still bleeding
C
I found someone else
D
I found someone else
G
She’s coming home with,
Am
She’s coming home with
C                      Am
She’s coming home with me.
G
You told me
Am
The only
C
Reason you left
D
This is not my fault
G
You told me
Am
The only
C
Reason you left
D
This is not my fault
G     Am       C
This is not my fault
     D    G      Am
For never moving down
C              D
To New Orleans with you
G     Am       C
This is not my fault
     D    G      Am
For never moving down
C              D
To New Orleans with you
G     Am    C   D
With you
G     Am    C   D
With you
