How'd we end up at a dirty hotel down in Memphis?

But you know it don't mean the same thing

Verse:
A           B
What's that stereo?
C#                              E        A
Ooh la la, bet you didn't have one in Memphis
B                    C#
Where's your heart? Play your favorite record
E                  A
And maybe we can relate more
              B    C#
I'm an Avril kid, yes, I said it
        E             A
I loved her, I am a human
B                 C#
Feel sixty four, feel thirty four
E                               A
I'm twenty four, you're just a robot
B                    C#
And it's so serene, think I'm relaxing
E                        A
And I'm feeling all so important
B                   C#
Let's take a trip, give me a kiss
E
Don't wanna sit on this

Chorus:
D                       E
Where's your stereo?
                                        A
Ooh la la, bet you didn't have one in Memphis

I'm an Avril kid, yes, I said it
                      A
I loved her, I am a human
                      D
Feel sixty four, feel thirty four
                                D

                    E
And it's so serene, think I'm relaxing
                         A
And I'm feeling all so important
                   D
Let's take a trip, give me a kiss
                        D       E

And you'll never come back to Memphis

Bridge:

Ringtone, echoes, delay
Missing you isn't something that I am used to
Did you expect? I could not expect
                              A
The way that I feel about you
                F#     E
Let's run away, let's get away
                  C#            A
We can choose a house on the hillside
                    F#  E
With a wooden fence, I can stay at home
                   C#            A
Wear my hair up nice, with the children
                        F#    E
I'll be a loving mom, won't judge at all
                  C#         A
And we'll never go back to Memphis
F#   E
And when you cry, just remember that

Chorus:
D                                  E
When deep cuts are piercing through
                                        A
You know that you can always cry on my shoulder
                    D
Those skyscrapers feel like sandpaper
                      D
I know how words can hurt you
                  E
You're a warrior, my warrior
                        A
You know I'll be the armor
               D
A tender heart, when we connect
                         D
And you let go, you are perfect
                 E
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid
                         A      E
We'll never go back to Memphis
And I'll never go back to Memphis
