Massachusetts Acoustic (ver 2) by Silverstein

Tuning: Standard

Intro: G#m-F#-B-F#


              G#m
She's cutting out the bruises,
   E             F#               G#m
Forgetting her excuses for being here again
       E                   B       F#      G#m
with a suitcase packed and waiting by the door.
                E                  F#               G#m
In her head, convinced herself she hasn't lost enough to quit.
      E                   B
But tonight she lays here thinking,
F#       E B    F#
What if I just left
       G#m     F#      E
In the middle of the night
B           F#
Back to California
    G#m-F#
And never look back?


Chorus:
G#m            E
  She'll fantasize about it
B            F#                 E
every single day but she can't find it
       F#             G#m
in her heart to run away,
    B
and no one's listening.
G#m              E
  With Northern Massachusetts,
B                F#
on his knees to stay, he's begging,
E               F#               G#m
Please, oh baby please, I can explain.
                 E-F#
It won't happen again.


             G#m
He's putting out the fires
         E            B
and he's making her believe
     F#      G#m
he's really changed this time;
         E            F#              G#m
But it's obvious it's just another lie, lapse and relapse.
     E               B        F#
And again she lays beside him thinking,
E    B--F#           G#m     F#      E
I'll pretend in the middle of the night,
   B                     F#
my eyes are closed, I'm sleeping,
G#m               F#
But I won't come back.


Chorus:
G#m            E
  She'll fantasize about it
B            F#                 E
every single day but she can't find it
       F#             G#m
in her heart to run away,
    B
And no one's listening.
G#m              E
  With Northern Massachusetts,
B                F#
On his knees to stay, he's begging,
E               F#               G#m
Please, oh baby please, I can explain.
                         G#m-F#-E-F#
It won't happen again... It won't happen again


G#m-F#-E-F#


Bridge:
G#m
  How long can this last?
Gm
  The final straw was the hospital.
E
  At least she told herself that.
          F#
But she just can't find the strength to end it.
E B    F#           G#m     F#      E
I just left in the middle of the night,
B           F#
Back to California,
    G#m-F#
And never look back.


Chorus:
G#m            E
  She'll fantasize about it
B            F#                 E
every single day but she can't find it
       F#             G#m
in her heart to run away,
    B
And no one's listening.
G#m              E
  With Northern Massachusetts,
B                F#
On his knees to stay, he's begging,
E               F#               G#m
Please, oh baby please, I can explain.
   B
It won't happen again


G#m            E
  She'll fantasize about it
B            F#                 E
every single day but she can't find it
       F#             G#m
in her heart to run away, (to run away...)
    B
And no one's listening.
G#m              E
  With Northern Massachusetts,
B                F#  (ON his knees to stay...) 
On his knees to stay, he's begging,
E               F#               G#m
Please, oh baby please, I can explain.
                 G#m
It won't happen again
