strum the chords.

[C]No more late night [E5]drives to Boston
F G**
No more Cure songs to get lost in
[C]No more taxis, [E5]subway tokens
F G**
Arms wide open, sky high honey, gone.
Immediatly after the second G** play the INTRO again (C, Csus4 X2) to transition to
VERSE 2.
VERSE 2:
Same as VERSE 1 except a bit more strumming sounds good here (especially with more high
e-string notes played with the chords at times)
[C]I take the str[Em]eetcars aroun[F]d San Franc[G]isco
[C]Get winks from the[Em] pretty boys down [F]in the [Fm(maj7)]Castro
[G]Through the turn[Am]stiles roll the [Fmaj7]jappy girls and [Cmaj7]shabby dolls
G Am F G*
I can't resist myself, I get their names, I never call.
CHORUS 2:
Similar to CHORUS 1, but mostly strumming this time!
[C]No more late night [E5]drives to Boston
F G**
No more Cure songs to get lost in
[C]No more taxis, [E5]subway tokens
F G** Cmaj7
Arms wide open, sky high honey, gone.
G**
Sky high honey.
BRIDGE:
[Em]You wait too lo[F]ng, you never leave[C]
[Em]And it feels like dy[F]ing, b[C]ut still your h[G]eart beats
Em, F, C, G
Em, F, C, G (this second G is played for a few measures)
CHORUS 3:
Played similar to CHORUS 1 for the first two lines, however more strumming like CHORUS 2
after that.
[C]No more late night [E5]drives to Boston
F G**
No more Cure songs to get lost in
[C]No more taxis, [E5]subway tokens
F G** Cmaj7
Arms wide open, sky high honey, gone.
