[G] [C] [D] [Em] [C]

 

[Bm]Break my soul in two looking for you

But you're [C]right here

[D]If I can't relate to you anymore

Then who am I [Em]related to? [C]

[Bm]And if this is the long haul

How'd we get [C]here so soon?

[D]Did I close my fist around something delicate?

Did [Em]I shatter you? [C]

 

And I'm [Em]sitting on a bench in Coney [C]Island

Wondering where did my [G]baby go?

The fast times, the bright lights, the [Bm]merry go

[C]Sorry for not making you [D]my centerfold

 

Over and [Em]over

[C]Lost again with no surprises

[G/B]Disappointments close your eyes

And [Bm]it gets colder and [C]colder

When the sun [D]goes down

[Em] [C]

[Bm]The question pounds my head

What's a lifetime of [C]achievement

[D]If I pushed you to the edge?

But you were too polite to [Em]leave me [C]

[Bm]Do you miss the rogue

Who coaxed you into paradise and [C]left you there?

[D]Will you forgive my soul

When you're too wise to trust me and [Em]too old to care? [C]

 

'Cause [Em]we were like the mall before the [C]internet

It was the one [G]place to be

The mischief, the gift-wrapped [Bm]suburban dreams

[C]Sorry for not winning you [D]an arcade ring

 

Over and [Em]over

[C]Lost again with no surprises

[G/B]Disappointments close your eyes

And [Bm]it gets colder and [C]colder

When the sun [D]goes down

 

[Em]Were you waiting at our [C]old spot

 

By the [G]gold clock

 

[Bm]Were you standing in the [C]hallway

With a big cake, happy [D]birthday

 

A [Em]universe away

And when I [C]got into the accident

The [G]sight that flashed before me was your face

[Bm]But when I walked up to the podium

I [D]think that I forgot to say your name

 

[Em]I'm on a bench in Coney [C]Island

Wondering where did my [G]baby go

The fast times, the bright lights, [Bm]the merry go

[C]Sorry for not making you [D]my centerfold

Over and [Em]over

 

[C]Lost again with no surprises

[G/B]Disappointments close your eyes

And [Bm]it gets colder and [C]colder

When the sun [D]goes down

When the sun [Em]goes down [C]

 

The [G]sight that flashed before me was your face

When the sun [Bm]goes [C]down

But I [D]think that I forgot to say your name

Over and [Em]over [C]

[G]Sorry for not making you my, making you my

[Bm]Making you [C]my [D]centerfold
