Standard (EADGBE)

We'd come seven hours down

Took the blue line to see where we hopped out

And I was only joking, and I was only joking

And I was only trying to get a laugh

You say this was the furthest that we had come

Travel so far to watch it fall, undone

And I had lost my token

You were looking bent and broken

Staring sideways with the rain coming down

But I am so enthralled

O New England

La da dum da

O New England

La da dum dum

This here is the fable of a failed attempt

(Fable, failed attempt now)

Find new life in a love in the seat of its origin

(Failed attempt, now)

From Long to Coney Island

From mid to west to upper Highland

And all I got is a silk full colored souvenier

The new millennium in New York

And all of New England

La da dum dum

O New England

O New England

In the face of your empire

I think I'd rather just wait in the car

And return to the turnpike

Watching the New England skyline sinking below

Sinking below

We'd come seven hours down

(We'd come seven hours down)

We'd come seven hours down

(We'd come seven hours down)
