[Intro] E F# B [Verse]
B                                      F#
   Sundown ‘nother town, just like the last one

                                                   B
Man said you're still ahead, you caught yourself a fast one.

E
No escape from your fate by putting' miles behind you

C#7                                             F#
    Some place there's no face and nothin' to remind you.
[Chorus]
    B               A           F#               B
But yesterday won't go away and you can't find tomorrow.

    E                F#            B
Sometimes you wonder won’t it ever come again.

B                    A                    F#              B
  Seems the world is standin' still, your feet are on the old treadmill

    E            F#            B
And,  Sundown is just, another town.
[Verse]
   B                                          F#
So here you are, another bar, in just another city

                                             B
Thick smoke, tired jokes, beginnings of self-pity

    E
And look around and get the sound of music loud and laughter

C#7                                           F#
   A new song moves you on, forever traveling faster
[Chorus]
    B               A           F#               B
But yesterday won't go away and you can't find tomorrow.

    E                F#            B
Sometimes you wonder won’t it ever come again.

B                    A                    F#              B
  Seems the world is standin' still, your feet are on the old treadmill

    E            F#            B
And,  Sundown is just, another town.
[Bridge]
F#
   Every shadow is a sentence,

E
   every corner is a page,

D                                   E
   Of a chapter in your life you've tried to close.

F#
   Every morning in the mirror,

E
   you expect to see your face,

C#                                F#
   Not a memory time and distance car to race.
[Chorus]
    B               A           F#               B
But yesterday won't go away and you can't find tomorrow

    E            F#            B
And,  Sundown is just, another town.
[Outro]
    E            F#            B
And,  Sundown is just, another town

E                F#            B        B
 And, Sundown is just, another town
