Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 Long ago, but not so very long ago

 The world was different, oh, yes, it was

 You settled down and you built a town and made it there

 And you watched it grow, it was your town

- C -- G --

 Time goes by and time brings changes

 You've changed too

 Nothing comes that you can't handle

 So on you go

 You never see it coming

 When the world caves in on you

On your town, nothing you can do

 Main Street isn't Main Street anymore

 Lights don't shine as brightly as they shone before

 Tell the truth, lights don't shine at all

In our town

Instrumental interlude

 The sun comes up each morning just like it's always done

 Get up, go to work and start the day

 You open up for business

 That's never gonna come

 As the world rolls by a million miles away

Main Street isn't Main Street anymore

No one seems to needs us like they did before

 It's hard to find a reason left to stay

 But it's our town

 Love it anyway

 Come what may

 It's our town
