[Verse 1]
G6 All through the F#m7night you teleBm7phoned
I saw the Cadd9light blinking red
Beside theAadd9 cradle
G6 But you don't F#m7know how far I've Bm7gone
Now I must Cadd9live with the lie
That IAadd9 made
[Pre-Chorus]
But if IF#m7 call, B/AI know I won't have toG#m7 say it
You'll hear mF#m7y voice - B/Asomething is bound to bG#m7etray Fdimit
[Chorus]
Aadd9 But do people living in Toledo
F#m7 Know that their name hasn't traveled very well?
D And does anybody in Ohio
Bm7 Dream of that Spanish citadel?
Aadd9 But it's no use saying that I love you
F#m7 And how that girl really didn't mean a thing to me
D For if anyone should look into your eyes
Bm7 It's not forgiveness that they're going to see.
[Post-Chorus]
Aadd9 You hearF#m7... her voiceDm(maj7) - "How Dmcould you do Dm6that?"
Aadd9 You hearF#m7... her voiceDm(maj7) - "How Dm6could you do that?"

[Verse 2]
G6 So I walked F#m7outside in the Bm7bright
Sunshine and Cadd9lovers pass by
Smiling andAadd9 joking
G6 But they don't F#m7know the fool I Bm7was
Why should they Cadd9care what was lost
What wasAadd9 broken?
[Pre-Chorus]
But if IF#m7 call, B/AI know I won't have toG#m7 say it
You'll hear mF#m7y voice - B/Asomething is bound to bG#m7etray Fdimit
[Chorus]
Aadd9 But do people living in Toledo
F#m7 Know that their name hasn't traveled very well?
D And does anybody in Ohio
Bm7 Dream of that Spanish citadel?
Aadd9 But it's no use saying that I love you
F#m7 And how that girl really didn't mean a thing to me
D For if anyone should look into your eyes
Bm7 It's not forgiveness that they're going to see.
[Outro]
Aadd9 But do people living in Toledo
F#m7 Know that their name hasn't traveled very well?
D And does anybody in Ohio
Bm7 Dream of that Spanish citadel?
Aadd9 But we still have Florence, Alabama
F#m7 We don't have Paris, and we don't have Rome
D Or New York, or even Amsterdam
Bm7 None of those lonely towns will be my home.Aadd9..
