Note: These chords were taken from the live video.

Verse 1
G+G            B minorBm
Goodbye Carolina I felt cold and I felt weak
    C majorC
Took a midnight bus from Asheville Passed
    E minorEm         D MajorD
like a ghost through Tennessee
      G+G
Brushed the northern edge of Blacksburg
     B minorBm
Like your hair off of your cheeks
        C majorC
I wish I could fall asleep
         E minorEm
Half dead in the window seat
     D MajorD
Awake for weeks

Interlude: G-Bm-C-Em-D

Verse 2
   G+G
Good morning, Manhattan
      B minorBm
Stopped at Port Authority
       C majorC
I'll take the train under the river
  E minorEm      D MajorD
The A augmentedA out to the G+G
     G+G
And I'll walk along your narrow streets
    B minorBm
With a dollar cup of coffee
      C majorC
Letting it stain my teeth
       E minorEm
Two sugars, a drop of cream
   D MajorD
Bittersweet

Interlude: G-Bm-C-Em-D

Verse 3

  G+G
God damn, I missed you Brooklyn
     B minorBm
Caught my breath here on your streets
     C majorC
I left my winter coat in Charlotte
    E minorEm       D MajorD
And I'm cursing at the breeze
  G+G
I'm hiding out from early March
     B minorBm
Read the sign hung in our lobby
       C majorC
The elevator broke last week
           E minorEm D MajorD
I walk the stairs to 403

Middle-Eight
    E minorEm      D MajorD      C majorC
I don't blame you for changing the locks
      E minorEm       D MajorD        C majorC
I think I'd probably do the same if it were me
    E minorEm        D MajorD     C majorC
Now I'm gathering up the courage to knock
         E minorEm            D MajorD
Not sure what I'm looking for I don't know what I want
     C majorC
Do I want anything?
       E minorEm   D MajorD
I don't want anything

Verse 4
   G+G
Some college student answers
     B minorBm
My heart crash lands on the floor
      C majorC
He says he sublet this place last month
     E minorEm      D MajorD
He never heard of me before
  G+G
He sees me there collapsing
    B minorBm
And he opens up the door
       C majorC
It's all new furniture
     E minorEm       D MajorD
I barely recognize it anymore

-Outro]
       E minorEm      D MajorD        C majorC
He says, I'm sorry, man. I wish that I knew more
    E minorEm      D MajorD          C majorC
I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for
   E minorEm         D MajorD      C majorC
No Dianne, no, she don't live here anymore
E minorEm      D MajorD      C majorC
Dianne don't live here anymore
