Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
See, [Em]I've been here for 28 years
Poundin' [Bm]sweat beneath these wheels
We tattooed [C]lines beneath our skin
No [G]surrender, my Bobby [D]Jean
[Em][D][G]

[Interlude 1]
[Em][C][G]
[D]
[Dsus4]
See, [D]I've been here

[Verse 2]
[Em]
for 28 years
Poundin' [Bm]sweat beneath these wheels
We tattooed [C]lines beneath our skin
No [G]surrender, my Bobby [D]Jean

[Verse 3]
And we've been [Em]burned by all our fears
Just from [Bm]growin' up around here
Our father's [C]factories marked our cards
While Eden [G]burned against [D]the stars

[Verse 4]
And Sally [D]said, [G]Sally said
"I can't [Em]take no more regret"
It cut us [C]deep into our souls
Came and [G]climbed into [D]our bed

[Verse 5]
And Sally [G]said, Sally said
"Meet me [Em]by the river's edge"
We're going to [C]wash these sins away
Or else we [G]won't come back
[D]again

[Interlude 2]
[G][Em][C][G]
[D]

[Verse 6]
You know I [Em]had these ballroom dreams
That, as [Bm]a child came to me
I was a [C]boy in Grandma's arms
A mother's [G]pride and a wounded [D]heart

[Verse 7]
And I was [Em]full with fiery wonder
You wore Audrey [G]Hepburn pearls
You were the [C]only one who
understood me then
You're the [G]only one who [D]will

[Verse 8]
And Sally [G]said, Sally said
"I can't [Em]take no more regret"
It cut us [C]deep into our souls
Came and [G]climbed into [D]our bed

[Verse 9]
And Sally [G]said, Sally said
"Meet me [Em]by the river's edge"
We're going [C]to wash these sins away
Or else we [G]won't come back [D]again

[Verse 10]
And now I [Em]drive the one-oh-one
On [D]On On a [C]California [G]night
And I'm [Em]amazed at
all [D]the stars
Beneath that [C]old Hollywood [G]sign

[Verse 11]
And they [Em]waltz the ballet up [Dsus4]the boulevard
[D]To a [C]place we never kep[G]t
And I'm [Em]not sure if we b[Dsus4]elong here
[D]If I [C]never really [G]left or if
I can go [D]home

[Verse 12]
And Sally [G]said, Sally said
"I can't [Em]take no more regret"
It cut [C]us deep into our souls
Came and [G]climbed into our bed

[Verse 13]
[D]And Sally sai[G]d, Sally said
"Meet me [Em]by the river's edge"
We're going to [C]wash these sins away
Or else we [G]won't come back again

[Verse 14]
[D]No retre[G]at, no regrets
No re[Em]treat, no regrets
No re[C]treat, no regrets
Meet me [G]by the river's [D]edge

[Verse 15]
No re[G]treat, no regrets
No re[Em]treat, no regrets
No re[C]treat, no regrets
Meet me [G]by [D]the [G]river's edge
