Chords with lyrics

Intro: E MajorE E7E7 E/F#E/F# E MajorE

E MajorE       E7E7
I'll come down tomorrow morning
E/F#E/F#        E MajorE
And meet you at our new location
E MajorE        E7E7
In front of City Bookstore
E/F#E/F#            E MajorE
Across the street from the railway station

Esus4Esus4 E MajorE

E/F#E/F#
She tells me how her night was spent
E MajorE
Nursing coffee and cigarettes
E/F#E/F#
You waited til your husband left
E MajorE
To pack your things and off you went

E/F#E/F#
He wouldn't notice that you'd left
E MajorE
Til morning when the drink wore off
E/F#E/F#
He stayed out all night with his friends
E MajorE
Never to return again

E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE Esus4Esus4

E MajorE        E7E7
In front of City Bookstore
E/F#E/F#                E MajorE
Across the street from the railway station
E MajorE           E7E7
You show up with your suitcase
E/F#E/F#       E MajorE
Ten dollars and a sad expression

Esus4Esus4 E MajorE

E/F#E/F#
She tells me that it's all over now
E MajorE
She's done her time and now she's out
E/F#E/F#
From the prison that she calls a house
E MajorE
Where she stayed put while he went out

E/F#E/F#
She left him a note taped to the door
E MajorE
Saying, "Babe I won't be back no more
E/F#E/F#
I can't find reasons for me to stay
E MajorE
Married to you and your cheating ways."

C# minorC#m          E MajorE
Walked her out to the train
C# minorC#m       E MajorE
Couldn't hide my pain
E/F#E/F#
Or these tears that flow
From my eyes like rain
              E MajorE
That September morning, 1959
