Cornelia Street

Taylor Swift


Tom: G

G D/F# Em7 Cadd9 
for the whole song :)

NOTE: I figured out a nice way of playing this in 
C without having to barre F - just use these chord shapes
and you'll barely need to move your fingers!

C - normal
G - 320013
Am(7) - x02010
F - x33011

[Intro]
C  G  Am  F

[Verse 1]
               C
We were in the backseat
                   G                               Am   F
Drunk on something stronger than the drinks in the bar
          C
"I rent a place on Cornelia Street"
G                     Am   F
I say casually in the car
          C
We were a fresh page on the desk
G                           Am  F
Filling in the blanks as we go
          C                           G
As if the street lights pointed in an arrow head
           Am   F
Leading us home

[Chorus]
                   C                       G
And I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends
                  Am            F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
                 C                           G
That's the kinda heartbreak time could never mend
                  Am            F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
          C          G                Am                     F
And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name
          C           G              Am
And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away
    F                           C
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
    G                           Am   F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

[Verse 2]
                    C
Windows swung right open, autumn air
G                             Am    F
Jacket 'round my shoulders is yours
             C
We bless the rains on Cornelia Street
G                          Am    F
Memorize the creaks in the floor
                  C
Back when we were card sharks, playing games
G                             Am   F
I thought you were leading me on
            C
I packed my bags, left Cornelia Street
  G                        Am   F
Before you even knew I was gone

[Pre-Chorus]
             G
But then you called, showed your hand
          Am
I turned around before I hit the tunnel
F
Sat on the roof, you and I

[Chorus]
                   C                       G
And I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends
                  Am            F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
                 C                           G
That's the kinda heartbreak time could never mend
                  Am            F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
          C          G                Am                     F
And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name
          C           G              Am
And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away
    F                           C
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
    G                           Am   F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

[Bridge]
            G
You hold my hand on the street
        Am
Walk me back to that apartment
       F
Years ago, we were just inside
                G
Barefoot in the kitchen
             Am
Sacred new beginnings
                 F
That became my religion, listen

[Chorus]
               C        G
I hope I never lose you
                  Am            F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
C    G    Am          F
  Oh-oh, never again
          C          G                Am                     F
And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name
          C           G              Am             
And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away
    F                          C
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
    G                           Am   F
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

[Post-Chorus]
              C                      G
I don't wanna lose you, hope it never ends 

(I'd never walk Cornelia Street again)
              Am        F
I don't wanna lose you (Yeah)

[Outro]
          C
"I rent a place on Cornelia Street"
G                      Am   F
I said casually in the car
