[Intro]
 C  F7M  Dm7


[Primera Parte]
C
Richie and Austen are often along
        F7M
For the ride
     Dm7
They don't say a lot, but

They know every inch
F7M
Of this drive
         C
If these trees started talkin', I
                       F7M
Bet you they'd only talk shit
          Dm7
'Cause we never do anythin' real, we
                F7M
 Just talk about it
C
Endin' of August, the bugs are just
      F7M
Startin' to die
        C
All the neighbors are votin' for
            F7M
Someone who wins every time
      C
And I thought gettin' older meant
                    F7M
Knowin' it's too late to try
      Dm7
And I tried gettin' sober, I swear I
               F7M
 Did bettеr this time


[Pre-Estribillo]
C    F7M
Ooh, hm
Dm7  F7M
Ooh, hm
C    F7M
Ooh, hm
Dm7  F7M
Ooh, hm


[Estribillo]
    C
Oh, everythin' you see out hеre will
 Die
F7M
Oh, it's a matter of time
          Dm7
'Til it's fields of ice and
Reflector lights
          F7M
'Til it's our town, mm


[Segunda Parte]
C
And anythin' you need, I will
 F7M
Provide

A ride home or an alibi
          Dm7
I know the traffic light you can
Speed right by
           F7M
'Cause the camera's down
      Am7
And I follow New York plates to the
County line
  G
I ignore 'em when they wave on 89
    F7M
The minute that September hits
    Dm7
I'm goin' off my medicine, oh
C
Late August angst and a pointless
Night
F7M                           Dm7
Oh, and the feelin' of bein' alive
                        F7M
For the first time in a long time


[Instrumental]
 C7M  F7M  Dm7


[Puente]
            C
Oh, we're a drawin' of a place
We're a photo on the fridge
           F7M
They mined copper for years, oh
There was nothin' left to dig
       Dm7
It's a place where most kids, just
Grow up and have kids
         F7M
Who grow up and have kids, who build
 Homes for the rich, oh


[Estribillo]
    C
Oh, everythin' you see out hеre will
 Die
F7M
Oh, it's a matter of time
          Dm7
'Til it's fields of ice and
Reflector lights
          F7M
'Til it's our town


[Post-Refrão]
          C
'Til it's our town
          F7M
'Til it's our town
         Dm7
And it's our town
            F7M
'Cause it's ours now
