Verse 1:
D A G A
Here in this city you live in,

A city of grey and brown,

And from where I'm standin', it's just an American town.

And I'm caught in between destinations,
G A
A little change of plans,

And I'm here in this city you live in,
A D A G A D A G A
With time on my hands.
Verse 2:
D A G A
Here in this city you live in,

A'goin' the old world alone,

If not for these old connections I'd sink like a stone.

Hum, um, um, um, um, um, um.

'Cause the spring time turned to summer,
G A
And summer turned to fall,

And I'm here in this city that you live in,
A D
And I just had to call.

And I can't help but sometimes wonder,
G A Bm
About your far away life,

Come in like the sound of thunder,
Asus4 A
On a warm summer niii-i-i-ight.

I spend my time now in airports and hotels and bars.

Hum, um, um, um, um, um,um.
G A D
And it's all about makin' connections,
G A
And all what might have been,
D A G
But I'm here in this city you live in,

And I'm just checkin' in.
A G A
Hum, um, um, um, um, um,um.
