Lyrics

She got out of (B)town

(F#m)on a railway New York (A)bound.

(E)Took all except my name,

(C#m)another (B)alien on Broadway.

Well, (E)some things in this world you just can't change.

(F#m)Some things you can't see until it gets too late.

And, (E)baby, baby, baby, when all your (D)love is gone,

who will save me from (A)all I'm up against out in this world?

And maybe, maybe, maybe you'll find (D)somethin' that's enough to keep you.

But if the (A)bright lights don't receive you,

you should (B)turn yourself around and come on (E)home.

(E)I got a hole in me now.

(F#m11)Hey, I got a scar I can talk about.

(E)She keeps a picture of (Bsus)me

(C#m7)in her (B)apartment in the (Asus2)city.

But (E)some things in this world,

man, they don't make (Bsus)sense.

(F#m11)Some things you don't need until they leave (Asus2)you.

Then the things that you miss,

you say....

(E)Baby, baby, baby, when all your (D)love is gone,

who will save me from (A)all I'm up against out in this world?

And maybe, maybe, maybe you'll find (D)something that's enough to keep you.

But if the (A)bright lights don't receive you,

you should (B)turn yourself around and come on (C#5)home.

Let that (B5)city take you in.

Come on home.

Let that city spit you out.

Come on home.

Let that city take you (D5)down,

(A5)yeah.

For God's sake, turn around.

(A)bright lights don't receive you, well,

(B)turn yourself around, girl.

Come on (E)home.

(A)Yeah, come on (E)home.

(A)Baby, baby, baby, baby, come on (E)home.

(G)Yeah, come on (E)home.

(G)Yeah, come on (E)home.

(G)Yeah, come on (E)home.
