Intro: A E A E
AThe kids are Bdriving and Saturday afternoEon just passed me by
AI'm just Bsavouring famEiliar sights
AWe shared some Bhistory, Ethis town and I
A B G#m Av
And I can't stop that long-forgotten feeling of her
AIn time to book a rBoom and stay tEonight
ANumber 1 is to fBind some friends and say &Equot;you're doing well --
AAfter all this tBime you boys look just the sEame"
ANumber 2 is tBhe Happy Hour at one of two Ehotels
A B G#m Av
And settle in to play "Do you remember so-and-so"
ANumber 3 is never sBay her name E
CHORUS:
And oh the Aflame trees'll Bblind a weary F#mdriver
Av B E
And there's nothing that can set fire to this town
There's no chAange, there's no pBace, everyC#mthing within its plEace,
Just makes it hAarder to beBlieve that she won't Ebe around
AOh, Bwho needs that sentimental bEullshit anyway
AIt takes more than just a Bmemory to mEake me cry
AAnd I'm happy just to sBit here at a tEable with old friends
AAnd see which one of us can tell the biggest lBies E
AAnd there's a girl, she's fallin' in loveB near where the Bpianola stands
AWith a young local factory auto worker B-- justE holdin' hands
And I'm woAndering if he'll G#mgo or if he'll sBtay
CDo you remGember, nothing Cstopped us on the Gfield in our Dday E
CHORUS
