[Intro 1]
[G][D][Bm][G][Bm][G][Bm]

[Verse 1]
Once [G]I
[Bm]left a girl in New York [G]City
[Bm]I beg you now, darling, don't you cry[G]
[Bm]I kn[F#m]ow this place ain't no Hol[Bm]lywood
[F#m]It doesn't even sparkle in your eye[Bm]
She [G]entertained some [D]people
[Bm]in her b[G]ack ro[Bm]om
Couldn't raise her [D]laugh, [Bm]only [G]sighs
[Bm]I to[F#m]ok my exit out the front doo[Bm]r
[F#m]And this is what I'd say if she asked wh[Bm]y
[G]Oh, it's be[D]cause
there's nowhere [G]to find you
[D]when you're out [A]hiding in the [G]woods
Oh, let's pre[D]tend that
[A]nothing ever changed,
be[Em]lieving that this [G]love will never [D]end
[G]Once I [A]met [D]a girl in[Bm]side a [G]taxi,
[Bm]I didn't know she [D]could
[Bm]n't pay the [G]fare.[Bm]
[F#m]She left me stranded on the si[Bm]dewalk,
[F#m]on the corner of 1st and Laf[Bm]ayette.
[A]Once I [G]met a [D]girl in [Bm]San F[G]rancisco,
[Bm]I met [D]her [A]in the heart[D] of Tenderlo[G]in.
[Bm]We could[F#m]n't make it any othe[Bm]r way
[F#m]This is what I'd say if she asked w[Bm]hy
[G]Oh, it's be[D]cause
There's [G]nowhere to find you
[D]When you're out [A]hiding in the [G]woods
Oh, let's pre[D]tend
That [A]nothing ever changed
Believ[Em]ing that this [G]love will
never [D]end[Am][B][Em][G]
[C#]
[G]Oh, it's be[D]cause
there's nowhere [G]to find you
[D]when you're out [A]hiding in the [G]woods.
Oh, let's pre[D]tend that
[A]nothing ever changed
Believ[Em]ing that this [G]love will never [D]end
[G][Bm][G][Bm][G][Bm]
[G][Bm][G]
You
