Verse 1:
I sat alone on top of the roof watching the snow melt away
tiny man in a little city thinking of things to kill the day
my friend phoned me other night we spoke of things we´ve never done
we spoke of words without meaning then we spoke of the rain and the sun

Chorus:
But I´m stuck with my hometown blues
a song I could never use

Verse 2:
She lived alone in a big apartement she invited me to come by
we drank some twenty cups of coffee then we said our goodbye
I want us to sit on the top of the roof I want us to never die
I want us to drink some more coffee and never say goodbye

Chorus:
But I´m stuck with my hometown blues
a song I could never use

Middle 8:
I could go to California
I could go to Vermont
I really should go somewhere else
I could go anywhere I want

Solo over verse chords

Verse 3:
The city is never waking up ´cause it never goes to sleep
I´m saving all the things that ! should do and throw away those I want to keep

Chorus:
and I´m stuck with my hometown blues
a song I could never use
yes I´m stuck with my hometown blues
a song I could never use
