Rough Town chords by Bronze Radio Return

Intro: G


  G         Am        Em
 ?Where you from?? he asks*
  G           C             G
 ?Oh no, that city I always pass?
    G          Am                    Em
 He told me he heard it's so hard to last
      G                 C                   G
 On a rising star, that seems to be sinking fast.

     G        Am              Em
 The bad news travels here so fast
           G                 C                    G
 While the tales of the good never will reach the mass
       G         Am               Em
 But I live here among the broken glass
      G                      C                    G
 It's not what you see, it's how you will make it last

 Em G C x2


 [Chorus:]
          Em               G
 From the late light after all the day is gone
      C
 When everybody leaves and the trouble comes along
         Em          G
 There?s not quite a welcome sign aglow
        C
 It's a rough town man, a rough town I know
     Em                 G
 The sound bites of the dying city noise
       C
 Are a fraction of the action that no one here enjoys
        Em                 G
 If you hold tight and you listen past the lows
        C
 It's a rough town now, it's my rough town I know

  G         Am             Em
 ?Hold your tongue, man? I say
             G                 C        G
 ?Cause it's easy to scoff and underestimate
      G       Am               Em
 Yeah All the things you can't relate to
        G                C             G
 Is the fabric I keep my memories sewn to


 Em G


 [Chorus:]
          Em               G
 From the late light after all the day is gone
      C
 When everybody leaves and the trouble comes along
         Em          G
 There?s not quite a welcome sign aglow
        C
 It's a rough town man, a rough town I know
     Em             G
 The sound bites of dying city noise
       C
 Are a fraction of the action that no one here enjoys
        Em                 G
 If you hold tight and you listen past the lows
        C
 It's a rough town now, it's my rough town I know
