A        F#       A
I can feel the filth is coming
       A      F#    B
I can see it moving in
        E      B    E     B
from a window with dirty hands
    G#      A     E
and coming back again


Yes, the waitress wants to kill me
but I'd kill her just the same
she better not look at me
or I'll do it all again


                 C#m  B
        But it's me
            E                   C#m B
        someone was there, that was me
            C#m       B   E
        someone named Araby


Now, the bassist hates the drummer
and his drummer hates his wife
see her again? Run away,
it will always be alright

Shall we go back to the motel?
no wait! Let's run away.
spend all night in Paradise Bar
until it goes away


        But it's me
        somebody was there, it was me
        my name is Araby

        But it's me
        somebody else is me
        someone namedAraby


instrumental:        G#m        D#m        E        G#m        D#m        E        G#m        F#        E


Rain just slaps our faces
colors me to here
where do we go? Where's the train?
with eyes still shaking with fear

I can see the lights are coming
but I'm sure they're not for me
it's written on the roadmap
that I can never see


        But it's me
        someone was there, that was me
        my name is Araby


        But it's me
        somebody else is me
        someone named Araby


instrumental = before
