Verse 1

All the cities in the world
B
And so very little time and
C
So many different girls...
Em
B
All you have to do is find them.
C
There's a wealth of opportunity,
you plan your trips accordingly.
B
A pity, but the pretty ones are
usually more touristy.
C
Say, how'd you like to run away
B
from these machines?
C
Everywhere the spies are printing
B
out your dreams.
C
Seven stops in seven
different countries,
B
Seven page itineraries, memories thick as Bloody Marys,
Jesus, Joseph, bloody hell.

Verse 3
D
vows we never kept.
Forty-five minutes minutes every

day religiously devoted to regret.
Time we could have spent on medication thrown away on education,
Em
And we planned to take a trip
B
to Scotland but we never made it.
How'd you like to run
away from these machines?
C
I had Ju lian's and Steve's.
B
You had Julia's and Jeanette's.
C
You wear your terror on your sleeve for
B
all the men I haven't met (yet).

I had Oliver in Potsdam,
you had Elanor in Amsterdam.

We're keeping track so carefully we've
missed the state we're in completely.
C
Honestly, your foot is out the door and I've got scores of offers
Baug
B
elsewhere and keep both feet planted firmly in the air,
C

And tomorrow you can totally erase me from your mind,
but trust me everything is fine,
Because

In my apartment in the south end.

Verse 5
C
And maybe you'll go mad.
B
And maybe I'll go gray

And pack up to Berlin,
Or maybe it won't matter anyway.

We'll find out that your mom was right
and you'll admit you're really gay.
C
And maybe I'll wake up
B
In a city far away.
C
Or maybe we'll make up

And buy a house and have a couple kids
and a Labrador and a microwave.
But anyway,

There is nothing in the world
D

Even that we will wake
D
C
up is an assumption.
Em
D
But I know for a fact that
C
I loved someone,
Em
D
And for a about a year he
C
lived in Boston...
