Verse 1
G
D
A
Bm
The pace of life gets faster
D
A
Bm
It runs from day to day
G
A
From pitfall to disaster,
G
Bm
A
it's just a step away
G
A
The world is out already,
G
A
and it moves as fast as snow
G
A
G
Bm
C
And it seems that now the time has come to close this town,
A
D
G
D
this town
G
D
A
Bm
Of all the stupid reasons,
D
A
Bm
well this must be the best
G
A
The lawmen and the workers,
G
Bm
A
all getting out of hand
G
A
They tear the place to pieces
G
A
and sell it by the pound
G
A
Then look the other way
G
Bm
C
A
D
G
D
when violence hits this town
G
D
A
Bm
For the weak, the helpless,
D
A
Bm
the new -born and the old
G
A
All live and sleep in one room,
G
Bm
A
But can't keep out the cold.
G
A
While those of strange persuasions,
G
A
Burn houses to the ground.
G
A
So sons of other nations
G
Bm
C
aren't safe to walk this town,
A
D
G
D
this town
G
D
A
Bm
The kids will crowd the schoolyard
D
A
Bm
And the drunks will fill the bars
G
A
And the only undertaker
G
Bm
A
Will drive the funeral car
G
A
And the local weekly paper
G
A
has already closed down
G
A
So no one will write the story
G
Bm
when they come to close this
C
A
D
G
D
G
D
G
D
town
G
D
A
Bm
Now like my father's father
D
A
Bm
And like my father, too
G
A
Well, I would work the land
G
Bm
A
as I was born to do
G
A
But the land is all on fire
G
A
for twenty miles around
G
A
G
And no one really wants to be the last
Bm
C
to leave this town
A
D
G
D
This town

Our town you
