F#m            C#m     A      D
You said we're not so tied together
F#m  C#m      A   D
What did you mean?
F#m    C#m       A             D
Meet me in the stairwell in a second
F#m   C#m       A D
For a glass of gin

Chorus:
E      A          D
Nobody else will be there then
E      A          D
Nobody else will be there
E      A          D
Nobody else will be there then
E      A          D
Nobody else will be there

Can you remind me the building you live in
I'm on my way
It's getting cold again but New York's gorgeous
It's a subway day

Chorus

A        E      C#m      D
Why are we still out here?
D               A
Holding our coats
A   E          C#m   D
We look like children
A     E         C#m     D         A
Goodbyes always take us half an hour
A      E     C#m   D
Can't we just go home?

Hey, baby, where were you back there
When I needed your help?
I thought that if I stuck my neck out
I'd get you out of your shell

My faith is sick and my skin is thin as ever
I need you alone
Goodbyes always take us half an hour
Can't we just go home?
