[Verse 1]
      G          Cadd9                  G
I was born 3,000 miles from where I came alive
      G                     Cadd9              G
And I left without saying a word to start a new life
        Cadd9                                           G
And sometimes in some random bar you'll cut through the noise
       Cadd9                                        G
Like a breeze in a summer heat like an old friend's voice
Cadd9   G
Boston accent


[Verse 2]
         G                         Cadd9                        G
Where my brother got kicked out of school where my mom threw him out
       G                          Cadd9              G
And my sister lives three streets over and two houses down
    Cadd9                                       G
And my father is buried in town by his father's side
    Cadd9                                         G
And me, I spent my whole damn life just trying to hide
   Cadd9   G
My Boston accent


[Chorus]
                   Em7      Cadd9      G
Moving through the crowd on that first night
         Em7           Cadd9 G
Lit like angels by the Citgo sign
           Dadd4/F#  Em7            Cadd9          G
We walked across the bridge just to kill some more time
                     Dsus4
Before you had to go home


[Verse 3]
        G                     Cadd9                    G
Now you live in a pretty nice house out on Paul Revere road
        G                       Cadd9             G
And you marry some guy from our class who I didn't know
      Cadd9                                             G
And I saw you at Christmas mass and you still looked the same
        Cadd9                                                G
I could almost feel your hands in my hands and you whisper my name
     Cadd9  G
In a Boston accent

[Chorus]
                         Em7      Cadd9      G
We're moving through the crowd on that first night
         Em7           Cadd9 G
Lit like angels by the Citgo sign
           Dadd4/F#  Em7            Cadd9          G
We walked across the bridge just to kill some more time
                     Dsus4
Before you had to go home


[Verse 4]
              G                    Cadd9                  G
Now there are doors that you can't open and some you can't close
       G                               Cadd9                      G
And my sister she's getting married in June but I don't think I'll go
        Cadd9                                          G
And sometimes in some random bar you'll cut through the noise
       Cadd9                                       G
Like a breeze in a summer heat like an old friend's voice
            Cadd9                                                 G
And you can change every inch of your life but you're still just a boy
       Cadd9  G
With a Boston accent
