E 
Looking at your watch a third time 
E                               A   Asus4   A  Asus4 
waiting in the station for the bus 
E 
Going to a place that's far, 
E                                 A    Asus4  A    Asus4 
so far away and if that's not enough 
B            A      Abm    C#m 
Going where nobody says hello, 
                   C#m     Bm          A 
they don't talk to anybody they don't know 
E 
You'll wind up in some factory 
E                                          A  Asus4   
A  Asus4 
that's full time filth and nowhere left to go 
E 
Walk home to an empty house, 
E                     A      Asus4  A  Asus4 
sit around all by yourself 
B                     A           Abm  C#m 
I know it might sound strange, but I believe 
                 C#m Bm          A 
You'll be coming back before too long 

E                F#m    B 
Don't go back to Rockville, 
E                F#m  B 
don't go back to Rockville, 
E                F#m   B 
don't go back to Rockville 
A 
And waste another year 


(Verse 2 same as first) 
(chorus) 

E                           A    B    A   B 
It's not as though I really need you 
E                          A    B    A  B 
If you were here I'd only bleed you 
F#m      C#m          F#m       C#m                A 
But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down and 
           A               B 
That's not how it ought to be 
            B              A            Abm    C#m 
Well I know it might sound strange, but I believe 
                C#m     Bm          A 
You'll be coming back before too long 

(chorus)
