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 gonna see 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 other 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 we'll make it 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
To some long forgotten night
C#m G#m
And friends who said they had your back
A E
But they just turned around and let you fight
E
And on the bowling alley wall
A E
You used all your smartest lines
C#m G#m
But they've been painted over now
A B
Looks like you're gonna get left behind
E A E B
She said the neon on the river will light my way
E A C#m B
And all the things that we've been dreaming of making real one day
C#m
So save your money, pack your bags
A B
I wanna run with you on Stamford hill
E A E B
She took the train into the city but you stood still
C#m E
You stood still about the train
B
You knew as you watched her go
A
That she was never coming back
C#m E
You start to places that you know
B
You said you're scared of heights
A
And that you didn't want to go
E
Where everyone else goes
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 A E B
She took the train into the city but you're still here
