      F#                  Bsus2               F#      Bsus2
The lakes and pines, they bleed of beauty and grace

        F#                Bsus2                F#     Bsus2
and the rivers, they run wild like an endless race

      F#              Bsus2                F#         Bsus2
the forrests soar so high then fall to the sea

   F#                    Bsus2       F#        Bsus2
as church bells ring and sing in harmony

  G#m                     B                F#
I heard them say they're shutting Detroit down

    G#m                   B             C#
but I won't leave, cause this is my hometown.

         B         C#               F#
And its times like these we can't replace,

      B           C#            F#
It's times like these we must embrace,

     B              C#              D#m       C#      B
And even though its bittersweet and brings us to our knees,

    G#m             B                   F#
It makes us who we are, in times like these.

     F#                       Bsus2              F#         Bsus2
The concrete and steel stand strong against the wind,

         F#               Bsus2             F#          Bsus2
with the memories of what was and what has been,

     F#                  Bsus2                 F#       Bsus2
the sounds of sweet soul music and blue collar blues,

          F#                         Bsus2           F#     Bsus2
there was 17 colors for a chevy on a red, white, & blue,

   G#m                B                    F#
I heard them say that you can't save that town,

    G#m             B                 C#
but I won't leave, I will stand my ground.

        B         C#               F#
And its times like these we can't replace,

      B           C#            F#
It's times like these we must embrace,

     B              C#              D#m       C#      B
And even though its bittersweet and brings us to our knees,

    G#m             B                   F#
It makes us who we are, in times like these.

The ice and snow give way to a new spring bloom

         F#                 Bsus2                    F#     Bsus2
and the wake that hope and faith, they will be home soon,

  F#                    Bsus2                  F#       Bsus2
a new day dawns as the good lord shines from above,

  F#                                Bsus2                 F#    Bsus2
cause in the rubble in rust there remains a whole lot of love,

    G#m                    B        F#
and I was here watching it all go down,

    G#m            B                  C#
and I'll still be when it comes back around.

        B         C#               F#

And even though its bittersweet and brings us to our knees,

It makes us who we are, in times like these.
