Chords

[Intro] G F C C Am Am G C D G [Verse 1]
G                   F 
Like a dream in the night

C                   Am
As the snow settles white

Am      Am Gm  C       D
There's a fire burning bright

D      Gsus4    G
In Massachusetts
[Verse 2]
G                         F
And there's a house upon a hill

C                      Am
That keeps us from the chill

Am         Am    Gm C   D
And by the grace of God we will

D          Gsus4   G
Be in Massachusetts
[Chorus]
        Em            C
You can tell me 'bout the times you spent

       Am       D         G
In the Rockies and on the plains

C                               Am   G  D  E  D
Please don't think that I'm the last to say

                 Bb      F
That there ain't lots of other places

C       G
In this world that still remain

C             Am
Beautiful and unchanged

    Am           G       C     D
But they're just not the same
[Verse 3]
        G                F
The sun comes up to meet the dawn

    C                             Am
And there's a day that must go on

        Am      G            C
There's another night that's gone

D       Gsus4     G
In Massachusetts
[Verse 4]
            G               F
And I could spend all of my days

    C               Am
And remain each day amazed

       Am       G      C
At the way each day is phrased

D       Gsus4   G
In Massachusetts
[Chorus]
        Em            C
You can tell me 'bout the times you spent

       Am       D         G
In the Rockies and on the plains

C                               Am   G  D  E  D
Please don't think that I'm the last to say

                 A#      F
That there ain't lots of other places

C       G
In this world that still remain

C             Am7
Beautiful and unchanged

    Am           G       C     D
But they're just not the same
[Verse 5]
        G             F
Now if you could only see

  C              Am
I know you would agree

      Am    G       C
There ain't nowhere else to be

D         Gsus4   G
Like Massachusetts
[Verse 6]
G                         F
And there's a house upon a hill

C                      Am
That keeps us from the chill

Am         Am       Gm  C   D
And by the grace of God we will

D         Gsus4    G
Be in Massachusetts
[Chorus]
            Em            C
Come on and tell me about the time you spent

      Am       D         G
In the Rockies and on the plains

C                               Am   G  D  E  D
Please don't think that I'm the last to say

                 Bb      F
That there ain't lots of other places

C       G
In this world that still remain

C             Am7
Beautiful and unchanged

    Am           G       C
But they're just not the same

D       Gsus4   G
As Massachusetts
