G#m            B                    E
'Cause I thought the Swiss could change me-
       G#m                  B                   E
That the finer things would render me finer tuned

[Verse 1]
G#m                      E
Oh I fervently want some time alone
 G#m                           E      G#m
Lucerne, I fervently want some time
G#m                 F#                     E
No wine, no elixir, no spirits can make me whole
C#m                           E
I just think I could use some time

[Verse 2]
G#m
And I say it with pain
        B
I don't know if I'm in the right yet
G#m
Still some burnt blood remains
         B
Remnants of great Architects
G#m   E
I'm a jack of all trades
      B                     C#m
But I never have been quite astute
C#m                                   E
Lucerne, I keep running right back to you


[Chorus]
      G#m            B           E
'Cause I thought the Swiss could change me
        G#m                B                E
And the finer things would render me finer tuned
C#m                          E
Lucerne, I keep coming right back-
E
I keep running home

[Verse 3]
G#m
And I say it with pain
        B
I don't know if I'm in the right yet
G#m
Still some burnt blood remains
         B
Remnants of great Architects
G#m   E
I'm a downhill parade
      B                        C#m
But I know that don't serve no excuse
C#m
Lucerne
C#m
Lucerne!


[Chorus]
        G#m          B           E
'Cause I thought the Swiss could change me
       G#m                 B                   E
And the finer things would render me finer tuned
C#m
Lucerne, I keep coming right back to you
