If you're just passing thru
                       C#
There's is not much to do in our little town
G#m                                               C#
If you're moving too fast then you probably won't last

In our little town
F#             A#m                       Fm
The man on the street has a light in his eyes
                   G#
And a shine on his shoes
D#m                   F#
There's not much of a dark side here
D#m            G#
I just want to make that clear
C#             F#                    C#
Hey our little town  is  a real fine place
               A#m                         C#
Hey our little town has a style and and a grace
              F#                        A#m
In our little town  we're not gathering dust
               G#                     D#m
Hey our little town is a face you can trust

Take a good look at us
              C#   F#             C#    F#
In our little town     our little town
G#m
So you've made some mistakes
                   C#
You can put on the brakes  in our little town
G#m
Youve been living in  vain
                    C#
Why not get off the train in our little town
F#              A#m                         Fm
The ways of the world  are like dust on the winshield
                G#
Just wipe them away
D#m            F#          D#m               G#
And see has it feels to be right  where you  want to be
C#             F#                    C#
Hey our little town  is  a real fine place
               A#m                         C#
Hey our little town has a style and and a grace
              F#                        A#m
In our little town  we're not gathering dust
               G#                     D#m
Hey our little town is a face you can trust

Take a good look at us
              C#   F#             C#    F#
In our little town     our little town
A                                      B        F#
In our little town  we got nothing  to hide you see
A
And if I were you
                        B           G#
There'd be no place I'd rather be
C#              F#                     C#
Hey  our little town is a place in the sun
              A#m                     C#
In our little town  we don't hurt any one
              F#                         A#m
In our little town  we will tell you no lies
                G#                            D#m
Hey our  little town   looks you right in the eye
D#m                            C#   F#
We bever say die in our lttle town
           C#  F#
Our little town
            A#m F#            C#
Our little town   our little town
