[Verse 1]
      G5         Csus2                    G5
I was born 3,000 miles from where I came alive
      G5                    Csus2               G5
And I left without saying a word to start a new life
        Csus2                                            G5
But sometimes, in some random bar, it'll cut through the noise
       Csus2                                          G5
Like a breeze, in a summer heat, like an old friend's voice
  Csus2   G5
A Boston accent
 
 
[Verse 2]
         G5                        Csus2                          G5
Well, my brother got kicked out of school, yeah, my mom threw him out
       G5                              Csus2               G5
And my sister, she lives three streets over and two houses down
       Csus2                                    G5
And my father is buried in town by his father's side
    Csus2                                         G5
And me, I spent my whole damn life just trying to hide
  Csus2   G5
A Boston accent
 
 
[Chorus]
                         Em7      Csus2      G5
We're moving through the crowd on that first night
         Em7           Csus2 G5
Lit like angels by the Citgo sign
           Dadd4/F#  Em7            Csus2          G5
We walked across the bridge just to kill some more time
                     Dsus4
Before you had to go home
 
 
[Verse 3]
        G5                    Csus2                    G5
Now you live in a pretty nice house out on Paul Revere road
        G5                        Csus2              G5
And you married some guy from our class who I didn't know
      Csus2                                              G5
And I saw you at Christmas mass and you still looked the same
        Csus2                                                G5
I could almost feel your hands in my hair and you whisper my name
     Csus2  G5
In a Boston accent
 
 
[Chorus]
                         Em7      Csus2      G5
We're moving through the crowd on that first night
         Em7           Csus2 G5
Lit like angels by the Citgo sign
           Dadd4/F#  Em7            Csus2          G5
We walked across the bridge just to kill some more time
                     Dsus4
Before you had to go home
 
 
[Verse 4]
              G5                   Csus2                   G5
Now there are doors that you can't open and some you can't close
       G5                              Csus2                       G5
And my sister she's getting married in June but I don't think I'll go
        Csus2                                          G5
And sometimes in some random bar it'll cut through the noise
       Csus2                                         G5
Like a breeze in the summer heat like an old friend's voice
            Csus2                                                  G5
And you can change every inch of your life but you're still just a boy
       Csus2  G5
With a Boston accent
