I went back to Ohio
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
But my city was gone
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
There was no train station
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
There was no downtown
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
South Howard had disappeared
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
All my favorite places
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
My city had been pulled down
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
Reduced to parking spaces

Ay, oh, way to go

BB A augmentedA E MajorE
Well
I went back to Ohio
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
But my family was gone
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
I stood on the back porch
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
There was nobody home
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
I was stunned and amazed
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
My childhood memories
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
Slowly swirled past
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
Like the wind through the trees

Ay, oh, way to go
Ohio

Verse 3:
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
I went back to Ohio
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
But my pretty countryside
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
Had been paved down the middle
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
By a government that had no pride
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
The farms of Ohio
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
Had been replaced by shopping malls
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
And Muzak filled the air
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
From Seneca to Cuyahoga Falls
Chorus:
BB E MajorE
Said, ay, oh, way to go
Ohio
Guitar Solo Outro:
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
