        [Verse 1]
        D            A            D
        Long ago, but not so very long ago
        G             A             D
        The world was different, oh yes it was
        D                       A                 Bm
        You settled down and you built a town and made it there
                           A
        And you watched it grow
                 G      A
        It was  your town  

        D    G/D    Asus2     

        D             A                    Bm
        Time goes by, time brings changes, you change, too
        G                     A                 D
        Nothing comes that you can't handle, so on you go
        D            A           Bm          D    G
        Never see it coming, the world caves in on you
           G    A
        On your town
        G               A       G   A/C#
        Nothing you can do.
        
        [Chorus 1]
        D                 G             D
        Main street isn't main street anymore
        D                     G                A            G     A/C#
        Lights don't shine as brightly as they shone before
        Bm              D                    G  Gm
        Tell the truth, lights don't shine at all       
          G       A      D
        In our town     

        G/D   Asus2   G/D
        [Verse 2]
        D                 A
        Sun comes up each morning
                      D
        Just like it's always done
        G             A              D
        Get up, go to work, start the day,
        D           A              Bm     D    G
        Open up for business that's never gonna come
               Em          D/F#    G             A     G    A/C#
        As the world rolls by a million miles away
        [Chorus 2]
        D                 G             D
        Main street isn't main street anymore
        D               G                 A           G   A/C#
        No one seems to need us like they did before
        Bm                  D             G    Gm
        It's hard to find a reason left to stay         
                  G    A
        But it's our town
        G         A
        Love it anyway
        Em   D/F#   G    A         D       
        Come what may, it's our town

        [Outro]
