I know, I cannot leave this place for the memories.
Dm7               Am7      Bm7      G        F#
  Things like the way they knew us, all over town.
Bm7        Em7                 Bm7
We used to walk the streets, together.
   Em7
We could be seen.
Dm7                Am7    Bm7
  Past shops where people knew us.
G            F#7
Yeah, people knew.

Bm7         Em7              Bm7        Em7
I've got to choose between tomorrow and yesterday.
Dm7              Am7    Bm7     G            F#7
 I can't stop to think about my life, here today.

All your life, you know.

 I get so you cannot stay and yet cannot go.

            Bm7              Em7                 Bm7
Hey,hey,hey I could find out where you've gone today.
       Em7
I feel so unhappy.
Dm7               Am7   Bm7
  Streets seem so empty now.
   G                         F#
I  want you, I want you with me
Bm7             Em7        Bm7             Em7
Maybe I'll find someone to get you, off my mind.
Dm7        Am7      Bm7      G                        F#7
  Take me away from here and leave it, leave it all behind

  Get so you cannot stay and yet cannot go...
