Verse 2
A Bm D E A Don't believe I'm taken in by stories I have heard A Bm D E A I just read the Daily News and swear by every word F#m C#m And don't think that I'm out of line D C#m Bm E For speaking out for what is mine A Bm I'd like to see you do just fine D C#m Bm But look at what you wear D C#m Bm And the way you cut your hair F#m E D C#m Bm E A I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown

Verse 3
A Bm D E A Leave me or I'll be just like the others you will meet A Bm D E A They won't act as kindly if they see you on the street F#m C#m And don't you scream or make a shout D C#m Bm E It's nothing you can do about A Bm It was there where you came out D C#m Bm It's a special lack of grace D C#m Bm I can see it in your face F#m E D C#m Bm E A I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown
