A5                      B5                         D5            E5                 A5 .... 
1.      I'm not one to look behind, I know that times,  must change, 
                        B5                    D5            E5                 A.... 
But over there in Barry Town they do things very strange. 
F#5                                    C#5           D5               C#5                 E5 
And though you're not my enemy, I like things like they used to be; 
      A5                                       B5                  D5      C#5        B5              
And though you'd like some company, I'm standing by myself, 
            D5                C#5     B5 
Go and play with someone else. 
 
Chorus 
             F#5       E5           D5       C#5              B5              A5 
I can see by what you carry that you came from Barry Town. 
 
 
A5                     B5                        D5           E5     A5 
2.      Don't believe I'm taken in by stories I have heard; 

I just read the Daily News and swear by every word. 
F#5                                     C#5      D5          C#5                       E5 
And don't think that I'm out of line for speaking for what is mine; 
        A5                          B5                      D5   C#5        B5 
I like to see you just fine, but looking at what you wear 
                D5                 C#5   B5 
And the way you cut you hair. 
 
Chorus 
 
Interlude 
F5                    A5                    B5                F5                        A5     
In the beginning we recall the word was hurled; Barry Town people got to be from  
B5 
another world. 
      A5                     B5                        D5           E5     A5 
          3.    Leave me or I'll be just like the others that you meet;  

They won't act as kindly if they see you on the street. 
F#5                                     C#5      D5          C#5                         E5 
            And don't you scream or make a shout; it's nothing you can do about;  
           A5                          B5                      D5   C#5        B5 
            It was there where you came out, it's a special lack of grace, 
           D5                 C#5   B5 
            I can see it on your face.                  Chorus & repeat 3 x
