It's ^Chere I had my babies and I ^Fhad my first kiss. I've ^Cwalked down Main Street in the ^Fcold morning mist. Over ^Cthere is where I ^Fbought my first car. It ^Cturned over once but then it ^Gnever went far.

And ^CI can see the ^Fsun's settin' fast, And ^Cjust like they say, nothing ^Ggood ever lasts. Well, ^Cgo on now and ^Fkiss it goodbye, But ^Chold on to your lover, 'Cause your ^Gheart's bound to die.

I ^Cburied my Mama and I ^Fburied my Pa. They ^Csleep up the street beside that ^Gpretty brick wall. I ^Cbring them flowers a^Fbout every day, But I ^Fjust gotta cry when I ^Gthink what they'd say.

If ^Cthey could see how the ^Fsun's settin' fast, And ^Cjust like they say, nothing ^Ggood ever lasts. Well, ^Cgo on now and ^Fkiss it goodbye, But ^Chold on to your lover, 'Cause your ^Gheart's bound to die.

^CNow I sit on the porch and watch the ^Flightning-bugs fly. But I ^Fcan't see too good, I got ^Gtears in my eyes. I'm ^Cleaving tomorrow but I ^Fdon't wanna go. I ^Flove you, my town, you'll always ^Glive in my soul.

But ^CI can see the sun's ^Fsettin' fast, And ^Cjust like they say, nothing ^Ggood ever lasts. Well, ^Cgo on now I gotta ^Fkiss you goodbye, But ^Chold on to your lover, 'Cause your ^Gheart's bound to die.
