Intro:
GbEb5Ab x2
Verse 1:
GbEb5Ab ( Db )
I woke up in New York City
GbEb5Ab ( Db )
from my sleep behind the wheel
GbEb5Ab ( Db )
Caught a train to Poughkeepsie
GbEb5Ab ( Db )
and time stood still
GbEb5Ab ( Db )
She wrote me a letter from San Diego
GbEb5Ab ( Db )
To qualify her luck
GbEb5Ab ( Db )
These flights connect through arizona
GbEb5Ab ( Db )
but I think I'll stay stuck.
PreChorus:

Verse 2 :
I met a girl who kept tattoos for homes that she had loved
If I were her I'd paint my body til all my skin was gone
she wrote me a letter as we passed through Rockford
she said she wont forget
And maybe I do, maybe I don't,
but I know I haven't yet
so here i am , well here i am wooo
