G D
She comes from Boston
C D
Works at the jewelry store
G D
Down in the harbor
C D
Where the ferries come to shore
G D
She never really knew how good it would feel
C D
To finally find herself in a place so warm and real
CHORUS:
G
She wears a Red Sox cap
D
To hide her baby dreads
C
The girl she was in New England
D
Is different now and dead
G
In all the local bars
D C
She flirts and tells the boys while they’re talkin’
D G
She’s from Boston
VERSE 2:
G D
She comes from Boston
C D
Talks to her family now and then
G D
Through e-mails and postcards
C D
She tries to explain to them
G D
That education and occupation will have to wait for now
C D
She loves the Rasta, reggae rhythms, her dreams
have changed somehow
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
G D
Her toes dig deep and deeper in the sand
C D
She’s seduced by the sunsets and her new life at hand
CHORUS
G
She wears a Red Sox cap
D
To hide her baby dreads
C D
From Boston
G
She came to this island from Boston
