From "Live Like You Were Dying" (2004)
(Bruce Robison, Darrell Scott)
INTRO: [Am7] [G] [Am7] [G] (x2)
On a lover's [Am7]leap, with a [G]freeway view
Sittin' [Am7]on my hood, [G]thinkin' bout you
Goin' [Em]over in my mind every [Bm]kiss and every fight
Yeah the [C]fool on the hill, is beaten down a[D]nother night
There were [Am7]days so hard I thought I [G]had to go
I'd get [Am7]in my car, and just [G]follow the road
But this [Em]is my home, and it's [Bm]who I am
And I [C]know I'd stay, if I could [D]make this...
CHORUS #1:
[Am7]Old [G/B]town [C]new again
A color other than [G]blue again
I'd have something to [D]do again
Instead of thinkin' bout [C]you a[G]gain [D/F#]
But the [Em]people I know, the [D/F#]places I go
Re[C]mind me of [G/B]you, won't some[Am]body come around
And [D]make this old town new
INTRO
There were [Am7]nights so long I thought the [G]sun burnt out
And there were [Am7]girls so wrong, I don't [G]wanna talk about
I was [Em]burnin' up the night, yeah in an [Bm]alcohol flame
Lightin' [C]up my way, tryin' to [D]make this...
CHORUS #2:
[Am7]Old [G/B]town [C]new again
A color other than [G]blue again
I'd have something to [D]do again
Instead of thinkin' bout [C]you a[G]gain [D/F#]
But the [Em]people I know, the [D/F#]places I go
Re[C]mind me of [G/B]you, won't some[Am]body come around
And [D]make this [Am7]old [G/B]town [C]new [G] [D] [C]-[G]
[D/F#]Yeah the [Em]people I know, the [D/F#]places I go
Re[C]mind me of [G/B]you, oh [Am]love goes wrong but [G/B]life goes on
And I [C]know what I gotta [G/B]do
I'm just [Am]hanging around
Tryin' to [D]make this old town [Am7]new [G]
