Counting Crows - Washington Square: chords

E              C#m
I sold my piano
                  Bm    A
It couldn’t come with me
                E
I locked up my bedroom
                          D  A
and I walked out into the air
                E     C#m
When nothing I needed
                Bm     A
is left there behind me
                         E    D
I walk out through the shadows
     A          E
Of Washington Square

I wandered the highways from Dublin to Berkeley
And I heard the songbirds of Ballyporeen
But I loved like a fountain
And it left me with nothing
Just memories of walking through Washington Square

Now I live in the shadows where light is electric
And time is a number that rests on a wall
And nobody knows me
My friends and my family
Are as far from this city as Washington Square

So cover this warm night in a blanket of starlight
And I’ll follow this freeway out into the air
In case you should wander and wanted to find me
I’m traveling homeward to Washington Square
