Intro: D A [x 2]
I’ll Ddrop you a postcard, I’ll Apick up my pen
DMiranda Street’s deserted, it’s C#mwinter aBmgain
DGive me ten minutes and I’ll Apaint you a pictureG  D  
DOf holiday houses where the sAun won’t shine
DAnd the paint is peeling around the C#m‘vacancy’ Bmsign
DWhere it’s winter foreverA, whatever the weatherG  D  
GAnd these are my autumn yDears
And tDhis is the town where the Agirl got run down
DPale sun in the pine trees, her C#mgolden hair on the Bmground
DHer body crumpled and I was Asick by the side of the roadG  D  
The sun goes dGown on the town where the sun never Drose
D A D C#m Bm
D A G D
I’m Dwaiting for December, I’m Awaiting for September
I’m Dwaiting for the tide to come C#mback Bmin
DGive me fifteen seconds and I’ll Ashow you aroundG  D  
GWhere I end is where I Dbegin
GThere’s nothing inDbetween
DKicking a stone along AMiranda Street
DStepping on cracks in the C#mconcrBmete
DWith a head full of loose change
And a Apocket full of ideas
GI could walk forever and nAever get out of DhereA  D  A  
DThis is the town where the Agirl got run down
And Dthis is the town where the C#mpostman was dBmrowned
DAnd this is the town where that fAoundling was foundG  D  
And the nGame round his neck was Dmine
How could it Gever be so cAold in sBmummertAime?
I’m too Gyoung to be so oAld in SummeDr Town
