Cornelia Street

	 
[Intro]
C  G  Am  F
[Strophe]
               C 
We were in the backseat 
                   G                               Am   F 
Drunk on something stronger than the drinks in the bar 
          C 
"I rent a place on Cornelia Street" 
G                     Am   F 
I say casually in the car 
          C 
We were a fresh page on the desk 
G                           Am  F 
Filling in the blanks as we go 
          C                           G 
As if the street lights pointed in an arrow head 
           Am   F 
Leading us home
[Refrain]
                   C                       G 
And I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends 
                  Am            F 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again 
                 C                           G 
That's the kinda heartbreak time could never mend 
                  Am            F 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again 
          C          G                Am                     F 
And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name 
          C           G              Am 
And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away 
    F                           C 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again 
    G                           Am   F 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
[Strophe]
                    C 
Windows swung right open, autumn air 
G                             Am    F 
Jacket 'round my shoulders is yours 
             C 
We bless the rains on Cornelia Street 
G                          Am    F 
Memorize the creaks in the floor 
                  C 
Back when we were card sharks, playing games 
G                             Am   F 
I thought you were leading me on 
            C 
I packed my bags, left Cornelia Street 
  G                        Am   F 
Before you even knew I was gone
[Pre-Refrain]
             G 
But then you called, showed your hand 
          Am 
I turned around before I hit the tunnel 
F 
Sat on the roof, you and I 
  
[Chorus] 
                   C                       G 
And I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends 
                  Am            F 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again 
                 C                           G 
That's the kinda heartbreak time could never mend 
                  Am            F 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again 
          C          G                Am                     F 
And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name 
          C           G              Am 
And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away 
    F                           C 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again 
    G                           Am   F 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
[Pont]
            G 
You hold my hand on the street 
        Am 
Walk me back to that apartment 
       F 
Years ago, we were just inside 
                G 
Barefoot in the kitchen 
             Am 
Sacred new beginnings 
                 F 
That became my religion, listen
[Refrain]
               C        G 
I hope I never lose you 
                  Am            F 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again 
C    G    Am          F 
  Oh-oh, never again 
          C          G                Am                     F 
And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name 
          C           G              Am 
And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away 
    F                          C 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again 
    G                           Am   F 
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
[Post-Refrain]
              C                      G 
I don't wanna lose you, hope it never ends  
  
(I'd never walk Cornelia Street again) 
              Am        F 
I don't wanna lose you (Yeah)
[Outro]
          C 
"I rent a place on Cornelia Street" 
G                      Am   F 
I said casually in the car
