Chords with lyrics
standard tuning, capo 2
might need to listen to the song to figure out when the E MajorE is played
* = strum once
[Verse]
A augmentedA
In a steel town
D MajorD A augmentedA
It’s all fun and games ‘til graduation
D MajorD F# minorF#m
When you work 51 or take one for vacation
D MajorD *
In a beach town
A augmentedA
In a steel town
D MajorD A augmentedA
That shift you work is what the world revolves round
D MajorD F# minorF#m
When that whistle winds its almost time to wind down
D MajorD *
Over a cold round
[Chorus]
A augmentedA E MajorE
In a steel town you learn how
D MajorD
to bend and not break
A augmentedA E MajorE
How to hang in, how to cut loose
D MajorD
How to find a way
F# minorF#m D MajorD
How to start with nothing, build it from the ground
F# minorF#m D MajorD
Everything that matters most I learned about
[Verse]
A augmentedA
In a steel town
D MajorD A augmentedA
All the talk is football and the weather
D MajorD F# minorF#m
And it always seems next season’s looking better
D MajorD
Than right now
A augmentedA
Yeah in a steel town
D MajorD A augmentedA
Your boots and jeans and shirts and cars are passed down
D MajorD F# minorF#m
There’s not a lot but there’s enough to go around
D MajorD
I found
[Chorus]
A augmentedA E MajorE
In a steel town you learn how
D MajorD
to bend and not break
A augmentedA E MajorE
How to hang in, how to cut loose
D MajorD
How to find a way
F# minorF#m D MajorD
How to start with nothing, build it from the ground
F# minorF#m D MajorD
Everything that matters most I learned about
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
In a steel town
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
In a steel town
A augmentedA D MajorD
Oooh
A augmentedA D MajorD
[Verse]
A augmentedA
In a steel town
D MajorD A augmentedA
We realize we’re all in this thing together
D MajorD F# minorF#m
And you learn to take the heat and stand the pressure
D MajorD *
In a meltdown
[Chorus]
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
In a steel town
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
In a steel town
F# minorF#m D MajorD
How to start with nothing, build it from the ground
F# minorF#m D MajorD
You can leave, but your heart will hang around
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
In a steel town
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
Yeah in a steel town
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
In a steel town
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
