C
G
Am
F
(VER)
We were in the
C
backseat
Drunk on something
G
stronger
than
The drinks in the
Am
bar
F
“I rent a
C
place on Cornelia Street”
G
I say casually in the
Am
car
F
We were a
C
fresh page on the desk
G
Filling in the blanks as we
Am
go
F
As if the
C
street lights pointed in an
G
arrow
head
Leading us
Am
home
F
(CHO)
And I hope I never
C
lose
you
Hope it never
G
ends
I’d never walk Co
Am
rnelia Street a
F
gain
That’s the kinda
C
heartbreak time could never
G
mend
I’d never walk Co
Am
rnelia Street a
F
gain
And baby,
C
I get mysti
G
fied by how
This
Am
city screams your name
F
And baby,
C
I’m so terri
G
fied
of
If you
Am
ever walk away
I’d
F
never walk Cornelia Street a
C
gain
I’d
G
never walk Cornelia Street a
Am
gain
F
(VER)
Windows flung right
C
open, autumn air
G
Jacket ’round my shoulders is
Am
yours
F
We bless the
C
rains on Cornelia Street
G
Memorize the creaks in the
Am
floor
F
Back when we were
C
card sharks, playing games
G
I thought you were leading me
Am
on
F
I packed my
C
bags, left Cornelia Street
Be
G
fore you even knew I was
Am
gone
F
(PRE CHO)
But then you
G
called, showed your hand
I turned a
Am
round before I hit the tunnel
F
Sat on the roof, you and I
(CHO)
And I hope I never
C
lose you, hope it never
G
ends
I’d never walk Co
Am
rnelia Street a
F
gain
That’s the kinda
C
heartbreak time could never
G
mend
I’d never walk Co
Am
rnelia Street a
F
gain
And baby,
C
I get mysti
G
fied by how
This
Am
city screams your name
F
And baby,
C
I’m so terri
G

If you

ever walk away
I’d
F
never walk Cornelia Street a

I’d
G
never walk Cornelia Street a
Am
gain
F
(BRI)
You hold my
G
hand on the street
Walk me
Am
back to that apartment
Years a
F
go, we were just inside
Barefoot in the
G
kitchen
Sacred new be
Am
ginnings
That became my re
F
ligion,
listen
(CHO)
I hope I never
C
lose
you
G
I’d never walk Cor
Am

C
Oh-
