I watch the plane fly away, from the place it left me
Em D C
with a coldness in my heart.

This old place dont look familar to me now,

but I suppose it's good to be home.

All my ambitions and my dreams left on that jetplane,

back to the place that I belong.
Chorus
G D C G
Sweet Massachusettes, I want to see it again
D C G
I want to be there again.
D C
but it's hard when you're banished three thousand
G
miles away.
Verse2.
Dont get me wrong I love the country I come from
and my roots I'd never want to change.
But it was in the U-S of A that I finally found my way
a steady road I walked on.
All the bills I could not pay, so they sent me away,
and now all I think of is-
Sweet Massachusettes, I want to see her again
I want to feel it again.
but it's hard when you're banished three thousand
miles away.

Am D7 G
Verse3.
Now my girl waits for me, hoping someday for my return.
but it seems so far away.
I hate to put her through this pain, to hear her cry on the line
I cannot comfort her of hold her hand.
I cant stand this hell, I might as well be in jail,
if I'm not with her.
My soul companion I did meet, when I lived on Bostons streets
I've got to get back somehow....to
Sweet Massachusettes, I want to hold her again
I've got to hold her again.
I need to see her again, I want to love her again. ect ect..
but it's hard when you're banished three thousand
miles away.
