guitar chords lyrics
Intro F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
The lakes and pines, they bleed of beauty and grace
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
and the rivers, they run wild like an endless race
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
the forrests soar so high then fall to the sea
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
as church bells ring and sing in harmony
G#m B F#
I heard them say they're shutting Detroit down
G#m B C#
but I won't leave, cause this is my hometown.
B C# F#
And its times like these we can't replace,
B C# F#
It's times like these we must embrace,
B C# D#m C# B
And even though its bittersweet and brings us to our knees,
G#m B F#
It makes us who we are, in times like these.
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
The concrete and steel stand strong against the wind,
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
with the memories of what was and what has been,
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
the sounds of sweet soul music and blue collar blues,
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
there was 17 colors for a chevy on a red, white, & blue,
G#m B F#
I heard them say that you can't save that town,
G#m B C#
but I won't leave, I will stand my ground.
B C# F#
And its times like these we can't replace,
B C# F#
It's times like these we must embrace,
B C# D#m C# B
And even though its bittersweet and brings us to our knees,
G#m B F#
It makes us who we are, in times like these.
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
[Solo seems to be based in F# Major Penatonic Scale]
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
The ice and snow give way to a new spring bloom
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
and the wake that hope and faith, they will be home soon,
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
a new day dawns as the good lord shines from above,
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
cause in the rubble in rust there remains a whole lot of love,
G#m B F#
and I was here watching it all go down,
G#m B C#
and I'll still be when it comes back around.
B C# F#
And its times like these we can't replace,
B C# F#
It's times like these we must embrace,
B C# D#m C# B
And even though its bittersweet and brings us to our knees,
G#m B F#
It makes us who we are, in times like these.
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2
