REM Don't go back to Rockville lyric video chords
Jam Along & Learn...
Looking at your watch with a time waiting in the station for [A] the bus
[E] Going to places far, so far away and if that's [A] not enough
Going [A] where nobody [C#m] sees you, don't talk to anybody [A] they don't know
wind up in some factory that's full, turned up nowhere to [A] let you go
Walk home to an empty house, sit around all by [A]
yourself
it might [A] sound strange, but I [C#m] believe you'll be coming back before [A] too long
[E] Don't go back [F#m] you lock-bill
