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

When the world caves in on you

Tell the truth, lights don't shine at all

In our town

That's never gonna come

But it's our town

Love it anyway

 F    Am   G
Come what may

           C
It's our town
