[Intro]
C Fmaj7 Dm7
[Verse 1]
C
Richie and Austen are often
Fmaj7
along for the ride
Dm7
They don't say a lot, but
Fmaj7
they know every inch of this drive
C
If these trees started talkin',
Fmaj7
I bet you they'd only talk shit
Dm7
'Cause we never do anythin'
Fmaj7
real, we just talk about it
C
Endin' of August, the bugs
Fmaj7
are just startin' to die
C
All the neighbors are votin'
Fmaj7
for someone who wins every time
C
And I thought gettin' older meant
Fmaj7
knowin' it's too late to try
Dm7
And I tried gettin' sober,
Fmaj7
I swear I did bettеr this time
[Pre-Chorus]
C Fmaj7
Ooh, hm
Dm7 Fmaj7
Ooh, hm
C Fmaj7
Ooh, hm
Dm7 Fmaj7
Ooh, hm
[Chorus]
C
Oh, everythin' you see out
hеre will die
Fmaj7
Oh, it's a matter of time
Dm7
'Til it's fields of ice
and reflector lights
Fmaj7
'Til it's our town, mm
[Verse 2]
C Fmaj7
And anythin' you need, I will provide
A ride home or an alibi
Dm7
I know the traffic light
you can speed right by
Fmaj7
'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
Fmaj7
The minute that September hits
Dm7
I'm goin' off my medicine, oh
C
Late August angst and a pointless night
Fmaj7 Dm7
Oh, and the feelin' of bein' alive
Fmaj7
For the first time in a long time
[Instrument]

[Bridge]
C
Oh, we're a drawin' of a place,
we're a photo on the fridge
Fmaj7
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
Fmaj7
Who grow up and have kids,
who build homes for the rich, oh
[Chorus]
C
Oh, everythin' you see
out hеre will die
Fmaj7
Oh, it's a matter of time
Dm7
'Til it's fields of ice
and reflector lights
Fmaj7
'Til it's our town
[Post-Chorus]
C
'Til it's our town
Fmaj7
'Til it's our town
Dm7
And it's our town
Fmaj7
'Cause it's ours now
