Em D Em D Now I don't disagree, it's a hell of a scene Em D A Jackson Square dropouts avoiding police Em D Em D If the 80's were tough, the 90's were mean Em D All that was left for the desperate A Were these fast cash machines Em D Em D That easy money never helped anything Em D A With that kind of juice, man, it ain't worth the squeeze Em D Em D But month by month I feel a change in the breeze Em D A So start moving on make your own history

D Em D Some people can't shake the weight of the past Em D A Some people's hearts remain at half-mast Em D Em D It's downtown where it all intersects Em D Some came from the mountains A College kids from the west Em D And not every suit lies right through their teeth Em D A There's good and there's bad, and then there's some in between Em D Em D As I wait for the bus coming from the east Em D A There's generations of pride and elbow grease

Verse
Em D Em D I understand if it's all a bit much Em D A It's a bit of a circus; it's a little bit rough Em D Em D I heard this place was run by the mob Em D A Buying everyone off down at city hall Em D Em D Those Oakville moms, they stick up their nose Em D A Those Burlington dads keep their daughters at home Em D Em D If you're the kind with nothing to say Em D A You heard about this party, but you're praying for rain, what?
