I went back to Boston
E A
Back to the city you were lost in
E A
I went back to the place
E A
Without your face in the stone
E A
Walked around Harvard Square

The runaway kids are still hanging out there
E
And I took the red line
A E A
All the way across the River Charles
C G
Some things try and try
D C
But they never fly, and they never fly
C G
You reach up from the waves
D C E A E A
And find that you're only waving goodbye
E A
Went walking in Boston
E A
Over a bridge I used to walk on
E
I was looking for my heart
A E A
That I'd flung into that sea of stone

Boston said, you need not apply

For your license to fly

Hey, young lady, don't look so surprised

It was Memorial Day
E (A)
I went to where you lay
E
There were thousands of people

Just like you in a giant graveyard
E A
You came all of that way
E A
Looking for the sky, you got a slap in the face

You had a desperate need to be loved
E
You just got put in that place
A
You better know your place, boy
C G
Some things try and try
D C
But they never fly, and they never fly

You reach up from the waves
D C E A E A
And find that you're only waving goodbye

Only waving

You're only waving
