VERSE 1
                            E5                      C5
She said "You can't stay a saint that long in the city"
                    E5                  C5
you laugh at the thought on the the elevator down
C5
You're just a phone call away

C5                                         E5
You're placing a big blind bet on the underdog
E5                                     
and though its a stretch, you believe
C5
when you're against the odds, and on your feet
                     A5              B5          
with you at your best, and promises kept,
                   C5                              E5          
she'd rather stay here with you on the laziest afternoons with you.

CHORUS
E5 B5                E5             C5         B5
  Lost in pacific time with the sound of a dial tone
E5 B5                           C5  B5           E5
  let the memories count the miles and never be forgotten.

VERSE 2
You woke to the screech of the wheels on a runway
over an ocean of praise on a stage,
the songs of your love fall to your knees.
with you at your best, this is all you've got left,
she'd rather stay here with you on the laziest afternoons with you.

CHORUS

BRIDGE
         G#5                               A5
Was it something that she said, something that she did
              B5
to make you leave her here alone?
         G#5                               A5
Was it something that you said, something that you did
         B5
to make her leave you here?
          B5
Don't leave me here alone.
