Philadelphia chords

[F] -> [G]

[A]two hours north of the nation's capital,
i took a b[E]reak from what would be my final days
in a prison of my own making to see a [Bm]friend who had said,
"hey come on over," a f[D]avorite band,
and an e[E]x-lover's ex-lover.
and r[A]yan said that he liked my company,
so i didn[E]'t leave that night
and stuck around for his birthday.
we r[Bm]ode out to the tops of the oil cans,
to a [D]pool in the woods and [E]i jumped in...

A -> [E] -> [D] -> F

perpetually l[A]ost and so
i made my way across the zip codes,
[E]sold tapes to the smaller distros,
learned cliches of the drifter's ethos.
[Bm]learned addiction to new faces:
[D]the pros and cons of being [E]place-less.
and my friends seemed [A]stuck.
but i didn't know what to say,
so i [E]addressed the chorus
and asked each voice individually.
they all said "i'm [Bm]doing this for my parents,
i wish i had other choices.
it's not [D]really what i want,
but i can't [E]stand to be a disapointment."

A -> [E] -> [D] -> F

and i [A#]wanted to say how at the end of the day
you're just [F]accountable to your memories.
and if you [Cm]can't lament what might have be[F]en...
[Cm]you'll never be a disapointm[F]ent.
but i [A#]couldn't find the words somehow,
wrote down the names of the college towns,
and waved out the window
as the dots on the map passed [F]by. [D#] [F] [D#]

and [B]ryan said that he liked my company,
and though i [F#]know i never told him,
well it really meant a lot to me,
and i [C#m]said i'd make a point to always stop on by.
and i [E]know that i don't, but i [F#]think about it every time
that the [B]greyhound[F#] glides past [E]philad[G]elphia.
and then the [B]greyhound c[F#]ries for p[E]hilad[G]elphia.
