[Intro: Eb]

Bbm                   Eb                        Ab                                       Fm
Back where the dogs bark, where still life bleeds the concrete white
Bbm                           Eb               Ab
Try not to go too far inside your mind
Bbm                   Eb                          Ab                                            Fm
Back where the cars decide, where the lame star limps an endless mile
Bbm                         Eb             Ab
Have I gone too far inside my mind?

A                              F#m  Bm                                      E
Oh, if you were the one, would I even notice now my mind has gone?
A                              F#m  Bm                Eb
Oh, if you were the one, would I even notice?

Bbm                    Eb                                     Ab                                           Fm
Back where the car was parked, where the canine in the A-line stole your time
Bbm                          Eb                Ab
You can only go so far for womankind

A                              F#m  Bm                                E
Oh, if you were the one, would I even notice now that he has come?
A                              F#m  Bm                Eb
Oh, if you were the one, would I even notice?

Bbm                         Eb   Ab                          Fm
You can only go so far, you can only go so far
Bbm                         Eb              Ab
You can only go so far in your mind

[Ending: Ab  Bb  Db  Eb  E  Ab  Gb  Ab  Eb]

Eb                       Ab                                    Bb
Does your love only come, does your love only come
                       Db Eb E Ab Gb    Ab             Eb
Does he only come......... in a Volvo?
