Our Town chords chords

Iris DeMent 1992

Capo II

[A][D][A][E]  

[A]And you know the [D]sun's settin' fast,

And [A]just like they say, nothing [E]good ever lasts.

Well, [A]go on now and [D]kiss it goodbye,

But [A]hold on to your lover,

'Cause your [E]heart's bound to die.

[A]Go on now and [D]say goodbye to [A]our town, to [E]our town.

[A]Can't you see the [D]sun's settin' down on [A]our town, on [E]our town,

Good[A]night.[D][A][E][A]

[A]Up the street beside that [D]red neon light,

That's [A]where I met my baby on one [E]hot summer night.

[A]He was the tender and I [D]ordered a beer,

It's [A]been forty years and I'm [E]still sitting here.

[A]But you know the [D]sun's settin' fast,

And [A]just like they say, nothing [E]good ever lasts.

Well, [A]go on now and [D]kiss it goodbye,

But [A]hold on to your lover,

'Cause your [E]heart's bound to die.

[A]Go on now and [D]say goodbye to [A]our town, to [E]our town.

[A]
