Capo 4
E-G-A repeatedly throughout
The setting sun out here in the spring
Can you see it in Iowa? It's such a pretty thing
I know what you're thinking
But I don't know what you're thinking it for
Don't come back
To this city
Don't even think about it
Don't come back
To this city
There's no one to give you pity
Rip your phone cord out of the wall
No one is even going to call
Barricade each window so no one can get in
Stay all cozy up in your little den
Don't come back
To this city
Don't even think about it
Don't come back
To this city
There's no one to give you pity
I'm not sure who I should trust
But I know it's not one of us
Wouldn't believe if you said the sky was blue
Wouldn't believe it if you told me what I knew
White lies spill like liquid from your mouth
Maybe that's why this all went south
Try to appreciate the finer things we had but
Now it's over and believe me I'm glad
Don't come back
To this city
Don't even think about it
Don't come back
To this city
If you do, it won't be pretty
So don't come back
