Verse 1
G                       Bm
Goodbye Carolina I felt cold and I felt weak 
       C
Took a midnight bus from Asheville Passed 
       Em                  D
like a ghost through Tennessee 
            G
Brushed the northern edge of Blacksburg 
          Bm
Like your hair off of your cheeks 
               C
I wish I could fall asleep 
                 Em
Half dead in the window seat 
          D
Awake for weeks 
 
Interlude: G-Bm-C-Em-D
 
Verse 2
     G
Good morning, Manhattan 
           Bm
Stopped at Port Authority 
              C
I'll take the train under the river 
    Em           D
The A out to the G
         G
And I'll walk along your narrow streets 
       Bm
With a dollar cup of coffee 
           C
Letting it stain my teeth 
              Em
Two sugars, a drop of cream 
      D
Bittersweet 
 
Interlude: G-Bm-C-Em-D
 
Verse 3
 
    G
God damn, I missed you Brooklyn 
          Bm
Caught my breath here on your streets 
          C
I left my winter coat in Charlotte
        Em             D
And I'm cursing at the breeze 
    G
I'm hiding out from early March 
         Bm
Read the sign hung in our lobby 
             C
The elevator broke last week 
                     Em D
I walk the stairs to 403 
 
Middle-Eight
        Em            D            C
I don't blame you for changing the locks 
            Em              D               C
I think I'd probably do the same if it were me 
        Em               D          C
Now I'm gathering up the courage to knock 
                  Em                       D
Not sure what I'm looking for I don't know what I want
          C
Do I want anything? 
             Em     D
I don't want anything 
 
Verse 4
     G
Some college student answers 
         Bm
My heart crash lands on the floor 
           C
He says he sublet this place last month
         Em            D
He never heard of me before
   G
He sees me there collapsing 
       Bm
And he opens up the door 
             C
It's all new furniture 
         Em              D
I barely recognize it anymore
 
-Outro]
             Em            D                C
He says, I'm sorry, man. I wish that I knew more 
        Em           D                   C
I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for 
     Em                  D            C
No Dianne, no, she don't live here anymore 
Em           D            C
Dianne don't live here anymore
