Black hole hips she looks like some sort of insect
Buzzing 'cross the floor toward me
I can't think when she's lookin' at me
With those green eyes shining like floodlights
Way in the back of New York City

She said she'd take me to Kokomo
We went to Kokomo, Indiana
Where she told me her real name was Diana
At the gas station

Somethin' about her reminds me of the United States
Sprawling across the West in all their glory
And imagination

Highway 25 divides the Great Plains from the Rocky Mountains
At Colorado Springs, a coal-mining town
Some lady wrote "America the Beautiful" sittin' on top of Pikes Peak up there
Lookin' way way down
Way way down

And I don't know how it happened, but here we are on the dance floor together
After all these years
And I know her real name now
I know who wrote "America the Beautiful"
And I hear a voice whisper in my ear saying
(Chorus:)

CaddG      Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramA minorAm
Don't turn your back on love
Chord diagramG+G  CaddG      Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramA minorAm
No, don't turn your back on love


(Repeat Verse)

You idiot. You fool. But don't you do it.

And I may not wanna' go over to your house
Whenever you want me to come over to your house
But that's no reason to turn your back on love

Heartbreak is my roommate now
We live together, and we share the rent
We have long conversations before we go to sleep in bed at night
Ooooooohhhh, long conversations

And I go out, I'm on the street, inside the street
In New York City or in Boston or Chicago
Whatever city I happen to be in at the time
I'm on the same street, mmmhmm,
And heartbreak is my roommate

Yes it's hard, of course it's hard
It's supposed to be hard
But I can still hear a voice it's callin'
It's callin' callin' but it's whisperin' it's a whisper in my ear saying


(Chorus:)

CaddG      Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramA minorAm
Don't turn your back on love
Chord diagramG+G  CaddG      Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramA minorAm
No, don't turn your back on love


(Repeat Verse)

My love, what am I supposed to do? Say no?

Somethin' about her reminds me of the United States
Sprawlin' across the West in all their glory
And imagination
She spans the cities and the desserts and the forests and the mountains
She brings it all back together in one big lovely package
Oh baby oh I'll never turn my back on love
Not while you're around to whisper in my ears
After all these years
Diana? Is that what it was?


(Chorus:)

CaddG   Chord diagramG+G  Chord diagramA minorAm
Don't forget me
Chord diagramG+G  CaddG  Chord diagramG+G   Chord diagramA minorAm
No don't forget me


(Repeat Verse)

I can't forget you. How could I ever forget you?
