D    G6     D    G6

[Verse 1]
        D
Say goodbye to the old street that never cared much for you anyway

(The) different colored doorways you thought would let you in one day
      G6
Goodbye to the old bus stop, frozen and waiting
D                                              A    G6    D
(The) weekend edition has this town way overrated


[Verse 2]
D
Walk across the baseball green, the grass has turned to straw

A flock of birds tries to fly away from where you are
     G6
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, old friend, I can't make you stay
D                                                      A    G6
I can't spend another ten years wishing you would anyway


[Chorus]
           D                       G6
How the sky turns to fire against a telephone wire
         Bm                   A         G6    D
And even I'm getting tired of useless desires


[Verse 3]
D
Every day I take a bitter pill that gets me on my way

For the little aches and pains the ones I have from day to day
   G6
To help me think a little less about the things I miss
   D                                            A    G6
To help me not to wonder how I ended up like this


[Verse 4]
D
Walk down to the railroad track and ride a rusty train

With a million other faces, I shoot through the city veins
      G6
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, old friend, you wanted to be free
    D                                             A   G6
Somewhere beyond the bitter end is where I wanna be


[Chorus]
           D                       G6
How the sky turns to fire against a telephone wire
           Bm                 A         G6    D
And even I'm getting tired of useless desires


[Verse 5]
D
Say goodbye to the old building that never tried to know your name

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, old friend, you won't be seeing me again
      G6
Goodbye to all the window panes, shining in the sun
     D                                                    A    G6
Like diamonds on a winter day, goodbye, goodbye to everyone


[Chorus]
          D                        G6
How the sky turns to fire against a telephone wire
            Bm                             A         G6
Burns the last of the day down now I'm the last one hanging around


[Chorus]
  D                              G6
Waiting on a train track, and the train never comes back
           Bm                 A          G6      D
And even I'm getting tired of useless desires
