verse 1 :

C G
leaving on the subway for your home last night
F G
i was paying for the ride with my money
F G F C
standing in the station , i was losing my patience and my mind
C G
all the liquor and the women and the time in between
F G
and the narcotic haze i’d been feeling
F G F C
shoulda never come between us but i’m so glad you’re back in my life

chorus :

F C
when i’m watching as the lights of the city fade
F C
sitting by the window on the seat of the train
F C
saddEned with the burden of a guessing game
C ( G ) Am
which one is yours ?
G F G C
just leave the lights off then next time i’m turning ’em on

C

verse 2 :

C G
well i was fumbling for a quarter , hoping it wasn’t over
F G
i was probably running out of money
F G F C
wasn’t over then and i guess that it ain’t over now
C G
well i hit the city i was dead on my feet
F G
lying in your arms with my head on the street
F G F C
tearing up my wallet and the bars where we used to meet

chorus :

F C
when i’m watching as the lights of the city fade
F C
sitting by the window on the seat of the train
F C
saddEned with the burden of a guessing game
C ( G ) Am
which one is yours ?
G F G C
just leave the lights off then next time i’m turning ’em on
