[Verse]
 
E5
Pulled over at midday 
 
            A5
The joker’s still wet behind the ears 
 
               E5
He hands off a novel of novice citations 
 
            A5
Outside the service station 
 
The glue sets beneath our heels
 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G#5               A5
My baby’s in Massachusetts 
 
                      E5
And all this booze is useless 
 
       D#5                   C#5
Sunset sing my scratched out sighing soul to sleep 
 
G#5                     A5
And the cashier here is ruthless
 
                       E5
Jeanette, I wrote your name down 
 
             D#5                 C#5
But I’d hate that job as much as you do 
 
         B5      G#5   A5
If I was stuck between Barton and Binghamton too
 
 
 
[Verse]
 
E5
Days like this I miss listening to records 
 
A5
Making coffee together, snow globes and jersey sheets 
 
E5
I tried sleeping in our bed without you last night 
 
A5
But that didn’t work at all because I couldn’t sleep 
 
 
 
[Bridge]
 
G#5
Sometimes I wish it was still last summer 
 
    A5
And you still lived in South Philly 
 
             E5                  D#5
And I wasn’t playing a show in Nebraska
 
           C#
Or Austin, Texas 
 
           B5                     A5
Asking the kids what they ate for breakfast 
 
 
G#5                   A5
But here I am, Valero bathroom 
 
                                   E5
Who’s paid to keep these things cliché? 
 
     D#5                 B5
Bury me beneath New York State 
 
                      A5
Because it’s the only place where I feel dead
 
 
 
{Outro Chorus}
 
G#5               A5
My baby’s in Massachusetts 
 
                      E5
And all this booze is useless 
 
       D#5                   C#5
Sunset sing my scratched out sighing soul to sleep 
 
G#5                     A5
And the cashier here is ruthless
 
                       E5
Jeanette, I wrote your name down 
 
             D#5                 C#5
But I’d hate that job as much as you do 
 
         B5      G#5   A5
If I was stuck between Barton and Binghamton too
 
E5
