C G Am F
We were living Ccarefree,
lost in something Gbrighter than the lights from aAmfarF
“I rent a Cplace on Cornelia Street”
GI say casually in the Amcar. F
We were a Cfresh page on the desk,
Gfilling in the blanks as we Amgo. F
As if the Cstreet lights pointed in an Garrowhead
leading us Amhome F
And I hope I never Close you, hope it never Gends,
I’d never walk CorAmnelia Street aFgain.
That’s the kind of Cheartbreak time could never Gmend,
I’d never walk CorAmnelia Street aFgain.
And baby, CI get mystiGfied by how this
Amcity screams your name. F
And baby, CI’m so terriGfied of if you
Amever walk away –
I’d Fnever walk Cornelia Street aCgain,
I’d Gnever walk Cornelia Street aAmgain. F
Windows swung right Copen, autumn air,
Gjacket ’round my shoulders is Amyours. F
We chase the Crains on Cornelia Street,
Gmemorize the creaks in the Amfloor. F
Back when we were Crock stars, playing games,
GI thought you were cheering me Amon. F
I packed my Cbags, left Cornelia Street
beGfore you even knew I was Amgone. F
But then you Gcalled, gave your hand,
I turned Amaround before I hit the tunnel,
Fsat on the roof, you and I.
I hope I never Close you, hope it never Gends,
I’d never walk CorAmnelia Street aFgain.
That’s the kind of Cheartbreak time could never Gmend,
I’d never walk CorAmnelia Street aFgain.
And baby, CI get mystiGfied by how this
Amcity screams your name. F
And baby, CI’m so terriGfied of if you Amever walk away,
I’d Fnever walk Cornelia Street aCgain,
I’d Gnever walk Cornelia Street aAmgain. F
You hold my Ghand, on the street,
walk me Amback to that apartment,
years aFgo, we were just inside.
Barefoot in the Gkitchen,
hopeful new Ambeginnings,
that became my traFdition, listen.
I hope I never Close you… G
I’d never walk CorAmnelia Street aFgain,
C Goh, never aAmgain… F
Cuz baby, CI get mystiGfied by how this
Amcity screams your name. F
And baby, CI’m so terriGfied of if you
Amever walk away –
I’d Fnever walk Cornelia Street aCgain,
I’d Gnever walk Cornelia Street aAmgain. F
I don’t wanna Close you, G
I don’t wanna Amlose you. F
“I rent a Cplace on Cornelia Street”
G I say casually in the Amcar F
