Tuning: standard tuning, capo 3rd fret
This is a beautiful little song by Romantica from their America CD. It's only a few
chords, but it's fun to play and sing along with. Listen to the recording for the
strumming pattern.

(Verse 1)
[G]Left the house at six-forty-five
[E]Caught the 76 downtown on [C/G]time
[Am]Stood there in the rain
She called out my name, and I just [G]cried
[G]Took the 17 uptown
[E]From the back of the bus you could hear the [C/G]sound
Of the [Am]bombs explode, and our fears implode into the [G]night
(CHORUS)
[Am]Oh Fiona
I had something to show you, honey
Wanna walk you home, baby, maybe[G] tonight
[Am]Oh Fiona
I had something to show you, honey
Wanna walk you home, baby, maybe[G] tonight
[G]Baby, tonight
[G]Baby, maybe tonight
[G]Baby, tonight
(FILL (same timing as Chorus))

(Verse 2)
[G]Got out of school at half-past three
[E]Took a bus from Methody dow[C/G]ntown
[Am]Stood outside the shops, everything had stopped, like the end of [G]time
[G]The sun was going down too fast
[E]I couldn?t wait to leave Belfast on [C/G]time
No one?s g[Am]oing anywhere
Even the cops were scared out of their [G]minds
(Repeat CHORUS)
