Fm/C     Cm7
    It's closing time the boys are 
all together at the bar
F
Staring in their glasses
                          Cm7   
Looks like another layoff at the 
        Eb6/C
yard.
Cm7
Yesterday I heard union hall come 
down
                   F
They hit it with a wrecking ball
And they try but nothing changes in 
Cm7
this town

[ Chorus 1 ]
Eb
Cap in hand stood in line
     Bb                            
Your family ties are the chains 
  F
that bind
    Eb
The endless wheel goes round and 
round
Bb                                
Chances are you'll never leave 
      F
this town

[ Verse 2 ]
       Cm7
Like a river now the empty streets 
are flooded out with rain
     F
It's falling on the playground
While the kids get wet playing the 
   Cm7               Eb6/C
same old games
Cm7
Locked away so many things remind 
them of war
                F
They tap the pavement with their 
canes
                           Cm7
The good old days ain't so good no 
more
