Our Town sing and play along

Level 5D120 BPMJames Taylor
Getting the sheet readyPip is finding the first note.

Long ago, but not so very long ago,

the world was diff'rent,

oh yes, it was.

You settled down and you built a town and made it there

and you watched it grow.

It was your town.

Time goes by and time brings changes,

and you change too.

Nothing comes that you can't handle,

so on you go.

You never see it coming

when the world caves in on you,

on your town.

There's nothing you can do.

Main Street isn't Main

Street anymore.

Lights don't shine as brightly as they've shone before.

To tell the truth, a lights don't shine at all

but in our town.

Sun comes up each morning,

just like it's always done.

Get up and go to work and start the day.

You open up for business;

it's never gonna come

as the world rolls by, a million miles away.

We love it anyway.

Come what may,

it's our town.
