verse 1
F#m Dsus2 A E
I've climbed the mountains in Montana
F#m Dsus2 A E
Danced in the lights of New Orleans
F#m Dsus2 A
Portland ran away with me and San Francisco stayed with me
Bm D
Nashville made its way in between
F#m Dsus2 A Amaj7
Fell in love in Minnesota
F#m Dsus2 A Amaj7
Fell apart south of Salt Lake
F#m Dsus2 A
Colorado calls to me and Washington will always be
Bm D
Begging for a piece of me to stay
Bm D
Maybe some things never change
[Refrão]
Chorus
E F#m D E A Amaj7
But I want to know how it feels to hang pictures on a wall
F#m Dsus2 E
Sleep in the same bed at night
F#m D E A Amaj7 F#m
I want reasons to stay I want someone to take up my time
Dsus2 E
And miss me when I go
Interlude
F#m Dsus2 A Amaj7 F#m Dsus2 E

F#m Dsus2 A Amaj7
I swam the beaches on the West Coast
F#m Dsus2 A Amaj7
And climbed the trees of Carolina
F#m Dsus2 A
I have felt the city streets of Boston underneath my feet
Bm D
Heard the sound of subways down the line
F#m Dsus2 A Amaj7
Walked the lake sides of Wisconsin
F#m Dsus2 A Amaj7
And bathed in springs of Idaho
F#m Dsus2 A
I could use a day or two or even just an afternoon
Bm D
To get myself lost in Chicago
Bm D
Maybe I'm homesick for it all
[Refrão]
