In Indiana

[Intro]
F  G  C  Am
F  G  C  Am
F  G  C  Am
F     G
 
[Verse 1]
         F       G            C          Am
There's a tragic Miss, with a pout and a beer
F           G              C           Am
Desperately trying to make sex look sincere
        F       G               C          Am
And the band is sweating with a limerick leer
F                   G
  Come on let's get out of here
 
F             G        C              Am
  Brooklyn is only six bucks and a door slam
F          G            C       Am
  Life dug holes in his face    sorry and sad
F            G         C         Am
  The goal she said is keep your head
             F                      G
And fit your life in the trunk of a yellow cab
 
[Pre-Chorus]
           F        E          C
And if you  talk to walls only walls will answer
F      E          C  Am   E7
  Only walls will answer you
 
[Chorus]
    Am              Am7/G
And I'm not wasting       your time
    Am               Am7/G
You say you know I'd       leave you far behind
F         G        C        Am
I wake to find I'm standing still
       F        G       C         Am
As the cemetery gate on graveyard hill
         G7
And they   thank you twice then wish you well
Am        G
In-in-Indiana
 
[Verse 2]
F                G      C            Am
  It was raining ice in Cleveland last night
F   G          C  Am
  I don't know anyone
   F   G   C   Am
At all
F              G          C      Am
  Two thousand miles from Avenue A
    F                             G
The waitress still watching every move I make
 
[Pre-Chorus]
           F        E          C
And if you  talk to walls only walls will answer
F      E          C  Am   E7
  Only walls will answer you
 
[Chorus]
    Am              Am7/G
And I'm not wasting       your time
    Am               Am7/G
You say you know I'd       leave you far behind
F         G        C        Am
I wake to find I'm standing still
       F        G       C         Am
As the cemetery gate on graveyard hill
         G7
And they   thank you twice then wish you well
Am        G
In-in-Indiana
Am           E7
In-in-Indiana
 
[Verse 3]
F             G           C           Am
  And I would live on the Brooklyn side if I could
F             G                     C       Am
  Look out my windows through those   metal neon lines
F        G          C      Am
  Of the fifty-foot Domino Sugar sign
F                          G
Hangs over Brooklyn like a   cross on a hill
 
        F        G             C            Am
And the   tragic Miss with the pout and the beer
F           G              C           Am
Desperately trying to make sex look sincere
     F             G           C              Am
Is ignoring my friends who are   too drunk to fear
        F            G            C        Am
And the   band still   sweating a sardonic sneer
      F             G               C        Am
And I know that I'm going, but am I going anywhere
 
[Chorus]
Am        G
  In Indiana
 
[Outro]
F             G         C    Am
  And Brooklyn is a long cab ride
 F  G   C  Am
Away
F   G   C
F   G   F/C
