(Don't Go Back To) Rockville

R.E.M.


 EAAsus4
 Looking at your watch a third time waiting in the station for a bus    
 EAAsus4
 Going to a place that's far, so far away and if that's not enough    
 B-VIIA-VG#mC#m-IVBmAAsus4
 Going where nobody says hello, they don't talk to anybody they don't know    

 EA
You'll wind up in some factory that's full time filth and nowhere left to go
 EAAsus4
 Walk home to an empty house, sit around all by yourself    
 B-VIIA-VG#mC#m-IVBmAAsus4
know it might sound strange, but I   believe you'll be coming back before too long    

 EF#mBBsus
 Don't go back to Rockville    
 EF#mBBsus
 Don't go back to Rockville    
 EF#mBBsus
 Don't go back to Rockville    
 A
 And waste another year    
riff
(B) 3-2-0---0-2--3-2-0---0
(G) -------2--------------2

 EAAsus4
At night I drink myself to sleep and pretend I don't care if you're not here with me    
 EAAsus4
'Cause it's so much easier to handle all my problems if I'm too far out to sea    
 B-VIIA-VG#mC#m-IVBmA
But something better happen soon or it's gonna be too late to bring you back

Chorus

 EF#mBAB
 It's not as though I really need you         
 EF#mBAB
 If you were here I'd only leave you         
 F#mC#m-IVF#mC#m-IVAB
 But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down and that's not how it ought to be

 B-VIIA-VG#mC#m-IVBmAAsus4
know it might sound strange, but I   believe you'll be coming back before too long    

Chorus 2x

End Riff
