Tabbed by: Doug Schmitz
Tuning: standard tuning, capo 3rd fret
This is a beautiful little song by Romantica from their America CD. It's only a few
chords, but it's fun to play and sing along with. Listen to the recording for the
strumming pattern.

INTRO
A5 G5
(Verse 1)
G5
Left the house at six-forty-five
E5 C5
Caught the 76 downtown on time
A5
Stood there in the rain
G5
She called out my name, and I just cried
G5
Took the 17 uptown
E5 C5
From the back of the bus you could hear the sound
A5 G5
Of the bombs explode, and our fears implode into the night
(CHORUS)
A5
Oh Fiona
I had something to show you, honey
G5
Wanna walk you home, baby, maybe tonight
A5
Oh Fiona
I had something to show you, honey
G5
Wanna walk you home, baby, maybe tonight
G5
Baby, tonight
G5
Baby, maybe tonight
G5
Baby, tonight
(FILL [same timing as Chorus])
A5 G5
Ahh - Ahh- Ahh
A5 G5
Ahh - Ahh- Ahh
(Verse 2)
G5
Got out of school at half-past three
E5 C5
Took a bus from Methody downtown
A5 G5
Stood outside the shops, everything had stopped, like the end of time
G5
The sun was going down too fast
E5 C5
I couldn?t wait to leave Belfast on time
A5
No one?s going anywhere
G5
Even the cops were scared out of their minds
(Repeat CHORUS)
