[E]
Looking at your watch a third time, waiting in the station for the [A] bus.
Going to a place that's far, so far away, and if that's [A] not enough.
[B] Nowhere nobody says [C#m] hello, they don't talk to [B] anybody they [A] don't know.
[E] You wind up in some factory, full time fill, with nowhere [F#] left to [A] go.
[E] Walk home to an empty house, sit around at night all [A] by yourself.
[B] I wish sooner [C#m] it told me to leave, to [A] bring me back.
[Em] Don't go back [F#] to Rockville.
[B]
[E] [F#m] [B]
[E] [F#m] [B] I
[A] wish another year.
[E] Tonight I'd creep myself to sleep, and pretend I don't care that you're [A] not here with me.
Cause [E] it's so much easier to handle all my problems, if I'm too [A] far out you see.
[B] Something better [G#m] happen sooner, [C#m] it's gonna be too late [F#m] to bring [A] me back.
[E] Don't go back to [F#m] Rockville.

[E] [F#] [B]
[Em] [F#m] [B] I

[E] It's not as though I really need you.
If you were here I'd only leave you.
[F#m] But [C#m] everybody else [F#m] in Toronto, [C#m] only wants to [A] bring me down.
It's not how it ought [B] to be.
I know it might sound strange, but [C#m] I believe you'll be coming back [A] before too long.
Come on back baby!
[E] Don't go [F#m] back to Rockville.
