Coney Island

	  		 

Intro G  C  D  Em  C 
  
Bm 
  Break my soul in two looking for you 
            C 
But you're right here 
D 
  If I can't relate to you anymore 
                 Em        C 
Then who am I related to? 
Bm 
  And if this is the long haul 
             C 
How'd we get here so soon? 
D 
  Did I close my fist around something delicate? 
    Em             C 
Did I shatter you? 
  
        Em                           C 
And I'm sitting on a bench in Coney Island 
                        G 
Wondering where did my baby go? 
                                        Bm 
The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go 
C                        D 
Sorry for not making you my centerfold 
  
         Em 
Over and over 
C 
Lost again with no surprises 
G/B 
Disappointments close your eyes 
    Bm                 C 
And it gets colder and colder 
              D 
When the sun goes down 
  
( Em  C ) 
  
Bm 
  The question pounds my head 
                      C 
What's a lifetime of achievement 
D 
  If I pushed you to the edge? 
                           Em       C 
But you were too polite to leave me 
Bm 
  Do you miss the rogue 
                                 C 
Who coaxed you into paradise and left you there? 
D 
  Will you forgive my soul 
                                      Em              C 
When you're too wise to trust me and too old to care? 
  
       Em                                C 
'Cause we were like the mall before the internet 
               G 
It was the one place to be 
                                  Bm 
The mischief, the gift-wrapped suburban dreams 
C                           D 
Sorry for not winning you an arcade ring 

         Em 
Over and over 
C 
Lost again with no surprises 
G/B 
Disappointments close your eyes 
    Bm                  C 
And it gets colder and colder 
              D 
When the sun goes down 
  
Em                         C 
  Were you waiting at our old spot 

In the tree line 
       G 
By the gold clock 
  
Did I leave you hanging every single day? 
Bm                         C 
  Were you standing in the hallway 
                       D 
With a big cake, happy birthday 
  
Did I paint your bluest skies the darkest grey? 
        Em 
The universe waits 
            C 
And when I got into the accident 
    G 
The sight that flashed before me was your face 
Bm                                     D 
  But when I walked up to the podium I think that I forgot to say your name 
  
Em                         C 
  I'm on a bench in Coney Island 
                        G 
Wondering where did my baby go 
                                     Bm 
The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go 
C                        D 
Sorry for not making you my centerfold 
  
         Em 
Over and over 
C 
Lost again with no surprises 
G/B 
Disappointments close your eyes 
    Bm                  C 
And it gets colder and colder 
              D 
When the sun goes down 
  
              Em       C 
When the sun goes down 
    G 
The sight that flashed before me was your face 
              Bm      C 
When the sun goes down 
      D 
But I think that I forgot to say your name 
         Em   C 
Over and over 
G 
Sorry for not making you my, making you my 
Bm             C       D 
  Making you my centerfold
