                C
We were in the backseat
                      G
Drunk on something stronger than
                  Am F
the drinks in the bar
"I rent a place on Cornelia Street"
I say casually in the car
We were a fresh page on the desk
Filling in the blanks as we go
As if the street lights pointed in an arrow head
Leading us home

Chorus:
                    C                      G
And I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends
                  Am             F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
                  C                           G
That's the kinda heartbreak time could never mend
                  Am             F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
          C           G
And baby, I get mystified by how
      Am                   F
this city screams your name
          C            G
And baby, I'm so terrified of
       Am
if you ever walk away
     F                           C
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
     G                           Am F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

Windows flung right open, autumn air
Jacket 'round my shoulders is yours
We bless the rains on Cornelia Street
Memorize the creaks in the floor
Back when we were card sharks, playing games
I thought you were leading me on
I packed my bags, left Cornelia Street
Before you even knew I was gone

              G
But then you called, showed your hand
           Am
I turned around before I hit the tunnel
 F
Sat on the roof, you and I

Chorus

             G
You hold my hand on the street
        Am
Walk me back to that apartment
        F
Years ago, we were just inside
                 G
Barefoot in the kitchen
             Am
Sacred new beginnings
                  F
That became my religion, listen

Chorus:
I hope I never lose you
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
Oh, never again
And baby, I get mystified by how
this city screams your name
And baby, I'm so terrified of
if you ever walk away
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

I don't wanna lose you,
hope it never ends
(I'd never walk Cornelia Street again)
I don't wanna lose you (Yeah)

"I rent a place on Cornelia Street"
I said casually in the car
