Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Sweden calls and never leaves her name

Its getting late and she loves to play these games

 So now Im lying in her bed

Trying to fall asleep

 I hear her voice; its ringing in the street

 I held her close, she let me go

 I loved a girl Ill never know

Paris looks good, shes as spoiled as they get

With wealth and fashion at her fingertips

So I put on my only tie

Tied it like a mess

She says, Hello, and sounds so unimpressed

I held her close, she let me go

I loved a girl Ill never know

 Stay to settle down

 Or leave it all behind

 And trade the things you know

 For the things you think youll find

Oh, New Yorks eyes keep shining all night long

She gives me drinks and lets me sing her songs

And when I hear her voice

It makes me feel so small

Everything youd want, shes got it all

Ill hold her close, shell let me go

I love a girl Ill never know

Chorus

 Ill hold her til she lets me go

I love a girl Ill never know

Ill hold her til she lets me go

 Oh...

 Sweden calls and never leaves her name

Its getting late and she loves to play these games

 So now Im lying in her bed

Trying to fall asleep

 I hear her voice; its ringing in the street

 I held her close, she let me go

 I loved a girl Ill never know

Paris looks good, shes as spoiled as they get

With wealth and fashion at her fingertips

So I put on my only tie

Tied it like a mess

She says, Hello, and sounds so unimpressed

I held her close, she let me go

I loved a girl Ill never know

 Stay to settle down

 Or leave it all behind

 And trade the things you know

 For the things you think youll find

Oh, New Yorks eyes keep shining all night long

She gives me drinks and lets me sing her songs

And when I hear her voice

It makes me feel so small

Everything youd want, shes got it all

Ill hold her close, shell let me go

I love a girl Ill never know

Chorus

 Ill hold her til she lets me go

I love a girl Ill never know

Ill hold her til she lets me go

 Oh...
