A D We'd come seven hours down A D Took the blue line to see where we hopped out A D And I was only joking, I was only joking A D And I was only trying to get a laugh A D You say this was the furthest that we had come A D We traveled so far to watch it fall undone A D And I had lost my token, you were looking bent and broken A D Staring sideways with the rain coming down [Chorus] Bm E But I am so enthralled A O New England D La da dum dum A O New England D La da dum dum [Verse] A D This here is the fable of a failed attempt (Fable, failed attempt, now.) A D To find new life in a love in the seat of its origin (failed attempt, now) A D From Long to Coney Island, from Mid to West to Upper Highland A D And all I got is this ill-gotten full color souvenir [Chorus] Bm E The new millennium in New York A And all of New England D La da dum dum A O New England D La da dum dum [Bridge] Bm O New England D In the face of your empire Bm I think I'd rather just wait in the car D And return to the turnpike E Watching New England's skyline sinking below A Sinking below D Sinking below [Outro] A D We'd come seven hours down A D We'd come seven hours down, down A D We'd come seven hours down A D We'd come seven hours down, down
