Columbus Ohio Chords & Lyrics - Mark Erelli

[INTRO]
[Abm] [F#] [E] [B] [E]

[VERSE]
Stranded on the [Abdim7]outskirts
Of [A]Columbus Ohi[E]o
Some motel [B]next to a [Dbm]strip mall church
With the [Bbdim7]neon burning [A]cold

[VERSE]
It's [E]raining [Dbm]soft and [Abdim7]steady
Like it [A]always does in [E]movies
Now I'm good and [B]drunk and [Dbm]ready
So [Bbdim7]let the credits [A]roll [E]

[CHORUS]
[A]When I was a young [B]man, I never [Dbm]dreamed it wouldn't [A]last
All I [Dbm]wanted was tomorrow, now I'm [Gb7]haunted by the [B]past
Don't know [A]where I'm going, all I [Abm]know is, [Dbm]I ain't [E7]coming [A]back
I've had e[Dbm]nough of Co[Gb7]lumbus O[B]hi[E]o [B] [Dbm]

[VERSE]
[B]If I'd a [E]ticket I would [Abdim7]gladly
Take the [A]bus up to Eau [E]Claire
I'd hitch south to [B]Cincin[Dbm]nati
If I [Bbdim7]knew a soul down [A]there

[VERSE]
There's no [E]curren[Dbm]cy in [Abdim7]Kerouac
At [A]least not since the [E]sixties
Lord, take pity on a [B]vaga[Dbm]bond
Whose [Bbdim7]sails have all gone [A]slack

[CHORUS]
[A]When I was a young [B]man, I never [Dbm]dreamed it wouldn't [A]last
All I [Dbm]wanted was tomorrow, now I'm [Gb7]haunted by the [B]past
Don't know [A]where I'm going, all I [Abm]know is, [Dbm]I ain't [E7]coming [A]back
I've had e[Dbm]nough of Co[Gb7]lumbus O[B]hi[Dbm]o
I've had enough of Co[Gb7]lumbus O[B]hi[E]o
