We were in the [C] backseat
Drunk on something [G] stronger than the drinks in the [Am] bar [F]
"I rent a [C] place on Cornelia Street"
I [G] say casually in the [Am] car[F]
We were a [C] fresh page on the desk
[G] Filling in the blanks as we [Am] go[F]
As if the [C] street lights pointed in an [G] arrow head
Leading us [Am] home[F]
And I hope I never [C] lose you, hope it never [G] ends
I'd never walk [Am] Cornelia Street [F] again
That's the kinda [C] heartbreak time could never [G] mend
I'd never walk [Am] Cornelia Street [F] again
And baby, [C] I get mystified[G] by how this [Am] city screams your [F] name
And baby, [C] I'm so terrified[G] of if you [Am] ever walk away
[F] I'd never walk Cornelia Street [C] again
I'd [G] never walk Cornelia Street [Am] again[F]
Windows flung right [C] open, autumn air
[G] Jacket 'round my shoulders is [Am] yours[F]
We bless the [C] rains on Cornelia Street
[G] Memorize the creaks in the [Am] floor[F]
Back when we were [C] card sharks, playing games
[G] I thought you were leading me [Am] on[F]
I packed my [C] bags, left Cornelia Street
[G] Before you even knew I was [Am] gone[F]
But then you [G] called, showed your hand
I turned [Am] around before I hit the tunnel
[F] Sat on the roof, you and I
I hope I never [C] lose you, hope it never [G] ends
I'd never walk [Am] Cornelia Street [F] again
That's the kinda [C] heartbreak time could never [G] mend
I'd never walk [Am] Cornelia Street [F] again
And baby, [C] I get mystified[G] by how this [Am] city screams your [F] name
And baby, [C] I'm so terrified[G] of if you [Am] ever walk away
[F] I'd never walk Cornelia Street [C] again
I'd [G] never walk Cornelia Street [Am] again[F]
You hold my [G] hand on the street
Walk me [Am] back to that apartment
Years [F] ago, we were just inside
Barefoot in the [G] kitchen
Sacred new [Am] beginnings
That became my [F] religion, listen
I hope I never [C] lose you[G]
I'd never walk [Am] Cornelia Street again[F]
[C] Oh[G] , never [Am] again[F]
And baby, [C] I get [G] mystified by how this [Am] city screams your [F] name
And baby, [C] I'm so terrified[G] of if you [Am] ever walk [F] away
I'd [F] never walk Cornelia Street [C] again
I'd [G] never walk Cornelia Street [Am] again[F]
I don't wanna [C] lose you (Hope it never [G] ends)
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
I don't wanna [Am] lose you [F] (Yeah)
"I rent a [C] place on Cornelia Street"
I [G] say casually in the [Am] car[F]
