We were in the Cbackseat
Drunk on something Gstronger than the drinks in the Fbar
"I rent a Cplace on Cornelia Street"

GFilling in the blanks as we Amgo F
As if the Cstreet lights pointed in an Garrow head
Leading us Amhome F

I'd Gnever walk Cornelia Street aAmgain F
[Verse 2]
Windows swung right Copen, autumn air
GJacket 'round my shoulders is Amyours F
We bless the Crains on Cornelia Street
GMemorize the creaks in the Amfloor F
Back when we were Ccard sharks, playing games
GI thought you were leading me Amon F
I packed my Cbags, left Cornelia Street
GBefore you even knew I was Amgone F
[Pre-Chorus]
But then you Gcalled, showed your hand
I turned Amaround before I hit the tunnel
FSat on the roof, you and I
[Chorus]
And I hope I never Close you, hope it never Gends
I'd never walk AmCornelia Street Fagain
That's the kinda Cheartbreak time could never Gmend
I'd never walk AmCornelia Street Fagain

And baby, CI'm so terriGfied of if you Amever walk away
FI'd never 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

Barefoot in the Gkitchen
Sacred new Ambeginnings
