E Looking at your watch a third time
E waiting in the station for the A bus A4 A
E Going to a place that’s far,
E so far away and if that’s not e-A nough A4 A

B Going where A nobody G#m says he-C#m llo
they don’t talk to C#m anybody Bm they don’t A know A4 A

E You’ll wind up in some factory
that’s E full time filth and nowhere left to A go A4 A
E Walk home to an empty house,
E sit around all by your-A self A4 A

B I know it might sound A strange, but G#m I be-C#m lieve
You’ll be coming C#m back be-Bm fore too A long

E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
A And waste another A year

At E night I’ll drink myself to sleep
And E pretend I don’t care that you’re not A here with me A4 A
Cause it’s E so much easier to handle
E All my problems if I’m too far A out to sea A4 A

But B something better A happen G#m soon
Or it’s C#m going to be too late to Bm bring you A back A4 A

E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
A And waste another A year

E It’s not as though I really A need B you A B
E If you were here I’d only A bleed B you A B
F#m But every-C#m body else in F#m town
only C#m wants to bring you A down, that’s not how it ought to B be

Oh I B know it might sound A strange, but G#m I be-C#m lieve
You’ll be coming C#m back be-Bm fore too A long

E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
A And waste another A year

E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
E Don’t go back to F#m Rockvi-B ille
A And waste another year A E
