[Verse 1]
E
Looking at your watch a third time
                                  A
Waiting in the station for the bus
E
Going to a place that's far
                                    A
So far away and if that's not enough

[Bridge]
B             A        G#m  C#m
Going where nobody says   hello
                          E6/B           A
They don't talk to no one they don't know

[Verse 2]
       E
You'll wind up in some factory
                                             A
That's full time filth and nowhere left to go
E
Walk home to an empty house
                          A
Sit around all by yourself

[Bridge]
B                     A            G#m  C#m
I know it might sound strange but I   believe
                            E6/B        A
You'll be coming back before    too long

[Chorus]
E                    F#m  B
Don't go back to Rockville
E                    F#m  B
Don't go back to Rockville
E                    F#m  B
Don't go back to Rockville
A
 And waste another year

[Verse 3]
   E
At night I drink myself to sleep
                                   A
Pretend I don't care if you're not here with me
            E
'Cause it's so much easier to handle
                               A
All my problems if I'm too far out to sea

[Bridge]
B                    A
But something better happen soon
G#m     C#m                       E6/B        A
Or it's gonna be too late to bring    you back

[Chorus]
E                    F#m  B
Don't go back to Rockville
E                    F#m  B
Don't go back to Rockville
E                    F#m  B
Don't go back to Rockville
A
 And waste another year

[Interlude]
E                            A    B
 It's not as though I really need you
A B
E                               A B
 If you were here I'd only bleed  you
A B
F#m           C#m            F#m          C#m
   But everybody else in town   only wants   to bring you
A
down and
                             B
That's not how it ought to be

[Bridge]
  B             A
I know it might sound strange,
G#m   C#m
but I believe
                        E6/B     A   E
You'll be coming back before too long

[Chorus]
                 F#m      B E
Don't go back to Rockville
                 F#m      B E
Don't go back to Rockville
                 F#m      B A
Don't go back to Rockville
                      E
And waste another year
                 F#m      B E
Don't go back to Rockville
                 F#m      B E
Don't go back to Rockville
                 F#m      B A
Don't go back to Rockville
                      E
And waste another year
