                E
Well, you were happy where you were

          A                   E
But that girl she wheeled you in

               C#m             G#m
This time was never good enough

                A                  E
'Cause she was gone and seen everything

            E
And if you ever spoke of love

           A                 E
She just smiled and put you down

                C#m            G#m
'Cause she was making all the plans

            A                  B
She had a vision of light and sound

              E                      A    E   B
She said the neon on the river will light my way

         E                                  A     C#m       B
And everything that we've been dreaming of making real one day

              C#m
So save your money pack your bags

           A              B
We better run before we disappear

              E                       A      E     B
She took the train into the city but you're still here

            E
You hear a song that takes you back

          A             E
The song long for God tonight

                C#m                     G#m
And friends who said they hang your back

               A                             E
But they just turned them round and let you fight

            E
And in the bowling alley wall

          A                 E
You used all your smartest minds

                 C#m           G#m
But they'll be painted over now

                 A               B
Looks like here gonna get left behind

              E                      A    E   B
She said the neon on the river will light my way

             E                                  A     C#m       B
And all the things that we've been dreaming of making real one day

              C#m
So save your money, pack your bags

         A                        B
I wanna run with you on Stamford hill

              E                       A    E    B
She took the train into the city but you stood still

     C#m                   E
You stood still about the train

                 B
You knew as you watched her go

                      A
That she wan never coming back

     C#m                      E
And start to places that you know

                 B
You said you're scared if I

                  A
Ad I didn't want to go

                E
Where everyone else goes

              E                      A    E   B
She said the neon on the river will light my way

         E                                  A     C#m       B
And everything that we've been dreaming of making real one day

              C#m
So save your money pack your bags

           A              B
We better run before we disappear

              E                       A      E     B
She took the train into the city but you're still here

              E                       A      E     B
