Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

D                      A
She got out of town
Em                            G
On the railway
New York bound
D                    A
Took all except my name
Em                       G
Another alien on broadway



D                                                 A
Well, some things in this world you just can't change
Em                                            G
Some things you can't see until it gets too late

Chorus:

D                             C
Baby, baby, baby when all your love is gone
                      G                                  D
Who will save me from all I'm up against out in this world
    D
And maybe, maybe, maybe
              C
You'll find something that's enough to keep you
           G
But if the bright lights don't receive you
           A                                   D
You should turn yourself around and come on home

Verse 2:

D                     A
I got a hole in me now
Em                               G
Yeah
I got a scar I can talk about
D                       A
She keeps a picture of me
Em                         G
In her apartment in the city
D                                              A
Some things in this world, man they don't make sense
Em                                     G
Some things you don't need until they leave you

And they're things that you miss

Chorus:

D                             C
Baby, baby, baby when all your love is gone
                      G                                  D
Who will save me from all I'm up against out in this world
    D
And maybe, maybe, maybe
              C
You'll find something that's enough to keep you
           G
But if the bright lights don't receive you, well
A                                   D
Turn yourself around and come on home

Bridge:

Em        A           G           Em
Let that city take you in (come on home)
Em        A           G            Em
Let that city spit you out (come on home)
E        A            CG     C G A
Let that city take you down, yeah
                       D
For God's sake turn around

Chorus:

D                             C
Baby, baby, baby when all your love is gone
                      G                                  D
Who will save me from all I'm up against out in this world
    D
And maybe, maybe, maybe
              C
You'll find something that's enough to keep you
           G
But if the bright lights don't receive you
           A                                   D
You should turn yourself around and come on home
