[Verse 1]
Em/G F#m7 Bm7 All through the night you telephoned Cadd9 I saw the light blinking red Aadd9 Beside the cradle Em/G F#m7 Bm7 But you don't know how far I've gone Cadd9 Now I must live with the lie Aadd9 That I made
[Pre-Chorus]
E5 C#m7 Emaj7/G# F#m7 B/A G#m7 But if I call, I know I won't have to say it E5 C#m7 Emaj9/G# F#m7 B/A G#m7 Fdim You'll hear my voice - something is bound to betray it
[Chorus]
Aadd9 But do people living in Toledo F#m7 Know that their name hasn't travelled very well? D And does anybody in Ohio Bm7 Dream of that Spanish citadel? Aadd9 But it's no use saying that I love you F#m7 And how that girl really didn't mean a thing to me D For if anyone should look into your eyes Bm7 It's not forgiveness that they're going to see.
[Post-Chorus]
Aadd9 F#m7 Dm(maj7) Dm Dm6 You hear... her voice - "How could you do that?" Aadd9 F#m7 Dm(maj7) Dm6 You hear... her voice - "How could you do that?"

[Verse 2]
Em/G F#m7 Bm7 So I walked outside in the bright Cadd9 Sunshine and lovers pass by Aadd9 Smiling and joking Em/G F#m7 Bm7 But they don't know the fool I was Cadd9 Why should they care what was lost Aadd9 What was broken?
[Pre-Chorus]
E5 C#m7 Emaj7/G# F#m7 B/A G#m7 But if I call, I know I won't have to say it E5 C#m7 Emaj9/G# F#m7 B/A G#m7 Fdim You'll hear my voice - something is bound to betray it
[Chorus]
Aadd9 But do people living in Toledo F#m7 Know that their name hasn't travelled very well? D And does anybody in Ohio Bm7 Dream of that Spanish citadel? Aadd9 But it's no use saying that I love you F#m7 And how that girl really didn't mean a thing to me D For if anyone should look into your eyes Bm7 It's not forgiveness that they're going to see.
[Outro]
Aadd9 But do people living in Toledo F#m7 Know that their name hasn't travelled very well? D And does anybody in Ohio Bm7 Dream of that Spanish citadel? Aadd9 But we still have Florence, Alabama F#m7 We don't have Paris, and we don't have Rome D Or New York, or even Amsterdam Bm7 Aadd9 None of those lonely towns will be my home...
