Long for the words with hearts and wings

Something familiar when you miss everything

You rest your head against the window pane

Feet on the dash through the steady rain

I drove you home while you slept in the front seat

After a show at the Stone Pony

I toss and turn at four in the morning

Petrified of where our future's going

So I fix a drink nice and strong in the kitchen

Something quick that'll cure my conscience

Creep back to bed and I kiss your forehead

Maybe everything is fine and it's all in my head

A little Boston in your attitude

Interlude:

A F#m A

Verse:

A
We drove up to Massachusetts together
A
Your old house was just like you remember
F#m
We stayed in your adolescent room
A
Rummaged through the boxes labeled "former you"
A
The souvenirs of happiness in the moment
                               F#m
Your wild years that you often mention
                                 A
The sands of time in an hourglass
                                Bm
That you're always begging for back
                        E
I got drunk in the afternoon
                                A
with your father in the living room
                             F#m
As the television broke the silence
                             Bm                        E
You smiled, know that I was trying the best that I can do

Chorus:

A
A little Irish in your blood

A little Polish in your name

A little Boston in your attitude
                             A
Just the way you were raised
                             D
A little Irish in your blood
                             A
A little Polish in your name
                                 D
A little Boston in your attitude
