        Dm       C          A#
Like a gunshot from miles away
       F     A#
She's moving in
        Dm           C         A#
Like a rainstorm without the clouds
      F       A#
She falls on him
         C            F 
Like a phone call to worn the truth
    A#
It never rings

Chorus:
           C      F        A#
It's the truth before the lies
It's the way she doesn't try
It's the wink before the slight
               F A#
In Philadelphia
               F A#
In Philadelphia

They met after work one day
She laughed with him
They drove off their separate ways
Then met for drinks
When he got home the silent guilt was deafening

Chorus

                                 Dm
She thought that love was gonna fight
                                 A#
She thought that love was gonna take her home
                                 C
She thought that love was gonna save her
                      Dm
But love just never showed

                                 A#
She thought that love was always watching
                                         C
Oh we learned that love was supposed to wait
                         F 
But sometimes it's the feelings
                         A# F A#
That are standing in the air

He slips off his worn out suit and tries to rest
She's a million miles away across the bed
She rolls over, puts her hand across his chest

Chorus

In Philadelphia
