E                  B
She got out of town
F#m                    A  Asus4 A
On a railway New York bound.
E                   B
Took all except my name,
C#m     B   Bsus4  A
Another alien on Broadway.
               E
Well, There's some things in this world
                 B  Bsus4
You just can't change,
F#m
Some things you can't see
               A      Asus4 A
Until it gets too late.

Chorus:
E
Baby, baby, baby,
               D
When all your love is gone,
Who will save me
     A                               E
From all I'm up against out in this world?
And maybe, maybe, maybe,
             D
You'll find something
That's enough to keep you,
             A
But if the bright lights don't receive you,
            B
You should turn yourself around
             E
And come on home.

I got a hole in me now
Yeah, I got a scar I can talk about
She keeps a picture of me
In her apartment in the city

Some things in this world
Man, they don't make sense
Some things you don't need
Until they leave you
And they're things that you miss, you say

Chorus:
Baby, baby, baby
When all your love is gone
Who will save me
From all I'm up against out in this world?
And maybe, maybe, maybe
You'll find somethin' that's enough to keep you
But if the bright lights don't receive you
You should turn yourself around and come on home

C#m       B            A
Let that city take you in. (Come on home.)
C#m       B            A
Let that city spit you out. (Come on home.)
C#m       B             D A    D A B
Let that city take you down yeah.
                      E
For God's sake turn around

Chorus:
Baby, baby, baby
When all your love is gone
Who will save me
From all I'm up against out in this world?
Yeah, well, maybe, maybe, maybe
You'll find somethin' that's enough to keep you
But if the bright lights don't receive you
Turn yourself around and come on home

Yeah, come on home
Maybe, maybe, baby, baby
Come on home
Yeah, come on home
Come on home
Come on home
