verse 3
G D
God damn I missed you, Brooklyn. Caught my breath here on your streets.
Em C
I left my winter coat in Charlotte. I’m cursing at the breeze.
G C
I’m hiding out from early March. Read the sign hung in our lobby.
G7 C
The elevator broke last week. I walk the stairs to 403.
Em D C Em D C
I don’t blame you for changing the locks. I think I’d probably do the same if it
were me.
Em D C Em D
I’m gathering up the courage to knock. I’m not sure what I’m looking for.
C G7
Do I want anything? I don’t want anything.
G D Em
Some college student answers and my heart crash-lands on the floor. He says he sublet
this place last month.
C
He never heard of me before.
G C
He sees me there collapsing and he opens up the door.
G7 C
It’s all new furniture. I barely recognize it anymore.
(finger picked in the same manner from C chord to end )
Em D C
He says, I’m sorry, man. I wish that I knew more.
Em D C Em D
I’m not sure exactly what you’re looking for, but no Diane, no, she don’t live
here anymore.
G C G
Anymore, Anymore, Anymore..
G C G
Diane don’t live here anymore.
