 C Z X Y
 I found a letter in the mailbox today
 And I said, "thank  you for your thoughts,  but I'm done."
I  said that I  would never build  this up right here
 And he said,  "that's why I can't work  with you son."
 But I can't let  this go  I'm on  my way
 You can only  hold my diamond  ring
 But I'll go crawling  back  to the city  I love
 Cause it's already  taken everything
 I'm going to Coney Island have myself a dog
 And reminisce why I still hate it here
 It's all these people with their cotton candy eyes
 It's so sweet, now put the train in gear
 But I can't let this go I'm on my way
 You can only hold my diamond ring
 But I'll go crawling back to the city I love
 Cause it's already taken everything
 The ground is swallowing my options for release
 And if it rains they might just disappear
 I counted 27 birds up there today
 I'm thinking that's why I still love it here
 I'm thinking that's why I still love it here
 But I can't let this go I'm on my way
 You can only hold my diamond ring
 But I'll go crawling back to the city I love
 Cause it's already taken everything
 Cause it's already taken everything

I found a letter in the mailbox today
And I said, "t[Am]hank you for your [G]thoughts, but I'm [C]done."
[C]I said that [Am]I would never [F]build this up right here
And he s[C]aid, "that's why I can't [G]work with you son."

But I can't l[Am]et this [G]go I'm [F]on my [C]way
You can o[Am]nly hold my [G]diamond ring   [C]
But I'll go c[Am]rawling b[G]ack to the [F]city I l[C]ove
Cause it's al[Am]ready taken ev[G]erything [C]

I'm going to Coney Island have myself a dog
And reminisce why I still hate it here
It's all these people with their cotton candy eyes
It's so sweet, now put the train in gear

But I can't let this go I'm on my way
You can only hold my diamond ring
But I'll go crawling back to the city I love
Cause it's already taken everything

The ground is swallowing my options for release
And if it rains they might just disappear
I counted 27 birds up there today
I'm thinking that's why I still love it here
I'm thinking that's why I still love it here

But I can't let this go I'm on my way
You can only hold my diamond ring
But I'll go crawling back to the city I love
Cause it's already taken everything
Cause it's already taken everything
