[Verse 1]
         A
Shared a cigarette for breakfast

                            D
Shared an airplane ride for lunch

                     A
Sitting in between a ghost

      F#m             D
And a walking bowl of punch

        A                   D  F#sus2
And you play a little hunch

   A
Predicting a delay on landing

                             D
Well, I predict we'll have a drink

                     A
Lost my money on the first hand

    F#m                 D
Got burned on a big fat king

         A
And your ears just want to ring

         Bm
And your eyes just want to close

        A
Nothing changing I suppose
[Chorus]
D                                  A
It's too late to turn back here we go

D          A
Portland

D                                  A
It's too late to turn back here we go

D          A         Bm
Portland
[Verse 2]
A
Mmm lay away raindrops

                          D
Look out before you catch cold

                      A
Serving boy can chain nothing

           F#m             D
That ain't anchored to his throne

       A                     D  F#sus2
But at least he's going home

A
Sleeping like a back woods junkie

                          D
Caught down in a southern trust

                      A
Hey look at the funny monkey

        F#m           D
Putting silver in his cup

         A
And your silver turns to rust

        Bm
In your second hand clothes

      A
Trust no one I suppose
[Chorus]
D                                  A
It's too late to turn back here we go

D          A
Portland

D                                  A
It's too late to turn back here we go

D          A         Bm       D        A   D  F#sus2
Portland
[Verse 3]
         A
Shared a cigarette for breakfast

                          D
Shared a pack of lies for lunch

              A
Credit card almighty

      F#m                D
Bring in the next little bunch

        A
And you owe me on a hunch

         Bm
And your eyes just want to close

                A
There's nothing changing I suppose
[Chorus]
D                                  A
It's too late to turn back here we go

D          A
Portland

D                                  A
It's too late to turn back here we go

D          A
Portland

D                                  A
It's too late to, it’s too late, I know

    D             A
Ooh Portland, ooh Portland,

A
Portland, we're sorry.
