[Intro] E
[Verse]
A E
The bandana boy sits whistling in the corner
C#m B
The subway screams in the dark
A E
My shirt sticks to me like a stamp to letter
C#m B
And there's ten stops to go
A E
I'm yesterdays news on a train to the city
C#m B
To see my friends. To throw it all away
A E C#m B
I'm in between jobs and tomorrow seems a lifetime away
[Bridge]
F#m G#m A B
I think I'll go dancing to the music
F#m G#m A B
Drinking with my friends
F#m G#m A B
Maybe get to talk to some girl Get to know all her secrets
D E
Secrets surrendered before they're even kept
[Verse 2]
These places are all the same
The only difference is the prices and the people paying them
But I won't complain, No
I'll make the best of tonight
So come on night gimme what you promised
Gimme Beenie Man, Gimme bottled tan girls
Gimme all of summer in just this one breath
[Bridge]
F#m G#m A B
I think I'll go dancing to the music
F#m G#m A B
Drinking with my friends
F#m G#m A B
Maybe get to talk to some girl Get to know all her secrets
D E
Secrets surrendered before they're even kept
[Intro] E
[Chorus]
C#m E
These city bad boys are going home alone
C#m E
City bad boy going home alone
C#m B A E
City bad boy going home alone
F#m A E
Nothing much else for boys like us to do
[Verse 3]
The bandana boy is twitching in his sleep
He dreams of taking down José
Putting a baseball bat to his head
Showing him who's the man
Me?
I'm dreaming of getting home
Thinking about that number I got right here in my pocket
A E
I'd like to call her right now
[Chorus]
C#m E
These city bad boys are going home alone
C#m E
City bad boy going home alone
C#m B A E
City bad boy going home alone
F#m A E
Nothing much else for boys like us to do
